we are both the same
in realizing that which we know not
a wisdom that is never learned
nor is it ever forgot

the difference then lies in the action
what we do with what we don't know
what kind of impact it has
on how far we're willing to go

will the knowledge leave you
shaken and frozen in fear
a massive lump chained to your ankle
the weight of which keeps you here

or is it more like a bird
untethered and allowed to fly free
the real difference lies in the choice
it becomes whichever you want it to be
