Go Above

Go above what is expected,
Show the length of true potential.

Express that it can be done.
Prove that compassion is worth more,
Than a late night somber.

Nothing is truly lost.
In the depths of a heart,
Forgiveness can thrive.

Dive in the that has been absent.
Make the waiting, wait no further.
The succeding move is all that profits, raised are the stakes.

Do what's been done before.
In a more simplistic time; before acquired over,
Before wrong became right, and right wasn't wrong.
