Before I Die Ill Leave My Words Behind
If I leave my words behind will you look for me
I’ve been gone long I had to be free
So I wrote my heart in a song
My thoughts written with a pen this is no caper
Everything from within my soul is now on paper
Look for the message it’s hard to find
Before I die I’ll leave my words behind
Will you understand each word
Can you read between each line
Do you think it’s absurd
Can you read into the rhyme
Look for the message it’s hard to find
Before I die I’ll leave my words behind
Do you get the translation
The meaning is there
Don’t listen with frustration
Just open your ear
Look for the message it’s hard to find
Before I die I’ll leave my words behind
Will the song freeze you to speak
Does it get your vote
Will the idea make you weak
Will you hang on every note
Look for the message it’s hard to find
Before I die I’ll leave my words behind
Will it make you drop to your knees
Sing it out and make you cry
My music makes you feel at ease
I’ll live forever in your minds eye
