If I Die

If I died today, remember me forever, and how I chased dreams, and seemed to quit...never. Would you look at my picture Then say I resemble my dad? Maybe right before I passed He was the motivation I had. If I died today, remember me through song, and how my shows started energized and ended strong. Would you play my music Then tell another friend That I tried day and night but died in the end. If I died tomorrow, would you say "I love you" today? Would you kneel beside my soul and to our savior pray. Would you share your past with me and put your plans aside? I'll pass and take your stories to heaven to be shared with the Most High. If I died right now would you please tell my mom? Tell her I tried my best to succeed and just hold on. She'll cry herself to sleep, and all night dream of me, but she'll know at heart that my mission is complete.
