Analysis of Do More Than Wait!
Please let the words now resonate
Inside your mind. Don't hesitate,
Because your problems won't abate,
Especially if you just sit and wait!
Don't be a victim of the fate
That comes to those who act too late;
Instead look up to Heavens' gate
And ask for faith that seems innate.
