Live and Let Die
Lived long enough to know this world;
Cherished it all in moments of joy,
Sang, danced and made merry,until dawns descend;
Woke to feel the morning splurge -then fall asleep in ecstasy.
Selfish means took over me, I swore by means, no excuse.
Walking this earth on earthen feet, so the number be deceit;
Different paths I walked this along,learnt a lot from nook and toil,
battered by the storm with with freight;
Praise God for thy almighty light.
Goodbye to you my precious love, take thy hand in pity sight;
Leave no stone for earth to bear;
Fellow folks look upright, and walk.
Shed no tear for earth to bear, just say a whisper of a pray;
Take me from here Oh! Lord thy God, a battered human being !
