dark weekend nights
the time of fancy dinners
supercars parked
the sound of v12’s fill the air
behind there’s a Bugatti
in front a Lamborghini
as midnight creeps around
everyone starts to leave
for them it’s just another night
for me it’s a dream
- inspired my my little brother :)
So what are the Rule's ?
You wish to place place this wager on ?
And how is the Jury then to Judge ?
Your Bank Account
Your Real Estate
Your Stocks and Share's
Minks and Furs
Supercars , Jewel's and Gold
Versus
My 2nd Mortgage
10 year old Car
Overdrafts
And rising Credit Card Bills
Based on this alone I fear you win this wager
Hands down no contest
But what if we raised the stakes
To what we could actually
take with us to our grave
Like Friends and Family
Those we have blessed
Lives we had touched
I fear my Foe
The Currency in Death you shall seek
Will not be measured
In Money and Gold
But rather in Deed's and Actions
And whether or not you will be missed
RODE SUPERBIKES
DROVE SUPERCARS
FLOWN THROUGH SKY
SAILED THROUGH SHIPS
EARNED THOSE MILLION DOLLARS
BOUGHT HELL LOT OF A THINGS
DONE ALL , I THOUGHT
I COULD
IN LIFE GENERALLY
ONE SHOULD
THEN ONE DAY
I THOUGHT FOR A WHILE
THOUGHT THAT BOUGHT
A LOSER'S SMILE
QUESTIONING THE MIND
ANSWERS TO WHICH
I BEGAN TO FIND
HOW COULD
HOW COULD MY HEART BE SO BLIND
BEHAVING SO UNKIND
FOR ALL THE WORLD'S TREASURES
FOR THOSE LIVES PLEASURES
THE MOST PRECIOUS ONE
I FORGOT TO EARN
DEEPLY REGRET
THAT I DIDN'T DO
OHH DEAR, I FORGOT
TO WALK A MILE WITH U !!!
