Analysis of Unlimited Perfection



In the present there're no cages
Tomorrow there'll be no holds
Yesterday there were no fences
With freedom life unfolds

Opportunities are knocking
Possibilities are there
Gates of paradise are open
Vast prospects fill the air

Former standards fail to measure
Present heights were unforeseen
Tomorrow's feats are imagined
All awaits some grand scheme

An unlimited perfection
An unmitigated hope
An unbelievable promise
Gives humans cause to cope
