Above the Influence
Rise above it,
Every day,
Every second,
Think,
Run past it,
Jump over it,
Slide underneath,
Confront and deny,
For if,
If you lose your momentum,
Failure is catching up,
And hope is slowing down,
The world as you know it,
Is fleeting,
Take no partners,
Be no partner,
Just keep running,
Climb the highest ladder,
Or to the highest set of stairs,
Until there is no more,
Or until you lost sight of it,
Beat it down,
Throw it away,
If you set it right,
You too can rise above it,
You too can rise above the influence.
