The Gate
Here I stand at the gate
Time to decide my fate
The life I have lived
What I have gived
Long has been my day
But love has guided my way
The things I say
Mistakes I have made
On this path I layed.
Well played
Through the laughter , the love , the tears
How I handled my fears
Before me
I see
Everything that I be
All that I ever done, or thought
What I have wrought
Did I care
Was I fair
...My soul to bear...
To pass through , did I deserve
Or did I get the curve
Every moment replayed
My every thought weighed
I tried my best
Not knowing this was all a test
Passed with grace
now beyond the race
I shed no tear
Theres no fear
In I walk
I have an eternity to talk
So much to say
But you'll find out, come your day
