I forgive your weakness
in light of all this bleakness
you were merely human
destined to be ruined
Startled as your brevity
turned to my longevity
I can't follow your steps
can't go the places you went
i must forge my own path
overcome and surpass
Startled as your brevity
turned to my longevity
The more i see around me
the more it does to ground me
at peace with all my limits
grateful for all i'm given
Startled as your brevity
turned to my longevity
