Life's Short

To live a long life unfulfilled or die a young legend
I don't know about u but I will forever choose the latter
Death is inevitable to everyone so it doesn't matter,
If u live 100 years or u only have a year to spend

The fullness of life is to live it to the fullest
Life goes so fast,, u'll never have another today
So don't live on the past,,live now come what may
Live everyday with the mood of a fest

Make memories now when u still can
So that u don't regret when u become old
When u wish u were younger n a little more bold
let your grand folks have sth for you to learn

'You only live once', ain't just a popular phrase
So live knowing u'll die n it's only one chance u got
Unless u believe in reincarnation, one day this body will rot
Why not then live your best life now in that case

And remember...they gon judge u anyways
But since they ain't God, ignore them
Life's too short to let others control your game
So live laugh n love now n u'll have the best days
