The Death of Me

When I die will you finally cry for me 
if I cry will you give your life for me
To make me smile will you go the extra mile
To see a tear,will you take away my fear
Not a fear of death but a fear of life
You sleep your death away
But life moves on day by day
When you see the death of me
And the light shines on the grave in which is sleep
Then and only then you'll see 
What I meant by the Death of Me

Written by my brotha...David E. Williams
