W.A.Y.C.O.

What are you capable of?

Would you lie, cheat or steal,

If your child were starving

Or if pain was all you could feel?

What are you capable of?

If you just got evicted from your home

And you lost your corporate job

Would you leave your family alone?

Are you capable of killing a person?

When your life is at stake

would you consider suicide

what decision would you make?

What are you capable of?

If you have been betrayed by a friend

Or abandoned by your family

Disown them or love them til the end?

Do you know yourself well enough?

To know the actions you would take

When your limits have been met

And you must face your mistakes

Our lives are fragile pages

In the book we sometimes call Life

The plot is always a mystery

When there's struggle, pain and strife

Morals, values and rules we live by

Come to question and are challenged

When our backs are to the wall

Or when we must be avenged

In a helpless and desperate situation

Instinct allows us to hate or love

In the critical moment of life or death

What are you capable of?
