On Your Final Day
By
Robert Lee King
[VERSE]
Every day I
find myself, another face in the crowd
I wonder how
my mother's doing, in her place above the clouds
I wonder what
my father thinks, if he thinks of her at all
Will anyone
even know I'm gone, when the reaper comes to call
[CHORUS]
Nothing left
but dying, on your final day
Every one
above ground, a good one so they say
How you live,
when you know the end, is racing your way
Makes all the
difference in the world, on your final day
[VERSE]
I know you're
thinking to yourself, I'm not going anywhere
But sooner
than later, time runs short, might as well prepare
You might
cheat on your taxes, but you can't cheat your way through life
When your time
comes, the reaper will take you
No matter how
hard you try to fight
[CHORUS]
Nothing left
but dying, on your final day
Every one
above ground, a good one so they say
How you live,
when you know the end, is racing your way
Makes all the
difference in the world, on your final day
[VERSE]
Some people listening
to these words, might think I'm preoccupied with death
I should make
the best of things, in the time I've got left
But I don't
see things quite that way, who are they to say what's right
Every thing is
born, dying, that's a simple fact of life
[CHORUS]
Nothing left
but dying, on your final day
Every one
above ground, a good one so they say
How you live,
when you know the end, is racing your way
Makes all the
difference in the world, on your final day
How you live,
when you know the end, is racing your way
Makes all the
difference in the world, on your final day
