Life According To Dmb

Life Accordingly
I must have been asleep or reading
   when life came knocking at my door.
It wasn’t easy to be ready and waiting
   after all, I think I’ve been here once before.

Each path is destined to be both happy, sad and open
   but when death comes be sure your piece was spoken. 
The lessons of the past  are hard and trying
   but in the end, I still leave physically dying.

So once again if my life lessons remain unlearned
  the call of birth will cause me to return.
