Vertical Limits

Climbing mountain
The higher you go
The more dangerous is the environment
The less is the oxygen in the air
The more exposure is to ultra violet light
The more slippery is the slope
The more effort is needed
And we have our limits
Career-seeking
The higher you go
The harder is the decision
The more difficult is the task
The more challenging is the career
The more jealousy you'll face
The more enemies you'll confront
And we have our limits
We should accept our limits 
As we're born humble with limits
Only with limits we will be willing to learn
We should accept our limits
As we're here to share 
But not to seize the earth's prosperity 
Where and who has no limits
I think
Maybe up in the sky 
The almighty God
Because he is the lord
His glory is to help and escort 
The world and his people
To help out our limits
And to escort on our greedy hearts
