We live in a world where one day we take two steps forward, then the next we take six steps back. Only to learn a lesson that will push us one step closer. One moment we jump 10 steps forward then realize society wants us 20 steps back. We can't be too ahead so we settle with a few steps back. But once you've been on a step more than once, that step no longer exist anymore. so we fall to the pit. the pit they made because they knew. Now i know. And now i'm stuck.
