Every single day, someone is born and someone dies It wasn't long ago my uncle pa**ed and my little niece came to life I get to thinking about my time to go and it won't be long from now I shiver inside at the chance that I might leave a life untouched by a vow Chorus: And I believe tonight is the night that I decide That I get busy living and I get ready to die So that when the fateful day does come when I'm six feet in the ground The poor and the weak and the orphan and meek will miss having me around When I pa** I don't wanna leave a life of regret
So I give rise to change today by trying not to forget That pleasures do pa** and sunrises end and stars do fade away But it's love and it's virtue and honor and truth that remain for all days Chorus I want that final breath to be the sweetest of all And it will be certainty if I answer the call To help all those in need and decipher the meaning of life 'Cause the seekers of truth they fear not d**h anymore than they fear life Chorus
