il'l be remembered by the things iv'e done
And by the things iv'e did
The things i have lost
And the things i have won
The momment my life is done
And they close the lid
But my time is drawing near
My watch is ticking slow
I'm sorry my family dear
But soon il'l have to go
My body is dieing down
I'm sorry again to say
You all will soon have to lay me in the ground
Soon one day
I'm getting weak by the hour
Every step I take
Speaking my mind on paper
Is not being a cowared
It's a choice I chose to make
Il'l miss you all
Yall will always be in my heart
Dead or alive
We will never be apart
So the day I die
Remember what I say
Keep me in your thoughts everyday
And do me a favor for me when I'm gone
Don't cry
Just know inside your heart that I'm home

People who think sitting in a church will make you a christian must think that sitting in a garage will make you a car.
