If I Were To Leave!

LEAVING
IF I WERE TO LEAVE EARTH MY SOUL SHALL BE FREE
DON’T WORRY I DON’T NEED ANY SORROW TO ACCOMPANY ME 

MY TIME HAS COME BUT THIS IS NOT THE END
SO DEFEND MY HONOR 

FOR I HAVE BECOME A SUCCESSFUL YOUNG LADY
OH MA DON’T PITY MY DEATH

FOR I HAVE LEARNED ALL YOU CAN TEACH
THE WISDOM THE FREEDOM AND THE LOVE IS WHAT YOU HAVE GIVEN TO ME

YOU SEE I HAVE LIVED SO LONG
SO I ASK YOU FOR ONE LAST SONG 

I HAD LITTLE TO GIVE
ONLY IF IT WERE SIMPLE AS TO LIVE AGAIN

I would prefer that you get more specific, and real with your emotion, it is vague. Is it suicidal or disease or just pondering. Go deeper, hurt me with your expression, i want to feel it with you
