SMILING WHEN I DIE

SMILING WHEN I DIE

 Want to work hard
To achieve greatness
And to leave a good heritage when I'm gone
I don't want my story to die with me, I want to keep smiling when I'm dead.

   Don't want to be like a mountain snake
I want to have great impact in life
Want the masses to still praise my name when I'm gone
I want to keep smiling in my grave, for that goods are said about my name when I'm no more.

   Want to keep smiling when I die
So I work hard all days and night
To show life that I'm relevant
I don't want to just come and leave without achieving great things.

    I don't want to go into exile like smoke in the air
When I breathe no more, I want to earn praise
I want their prayers and happy words to keep my dead body smiling
Want to live happily when I leave.

    When I die
I don't want to be sad in the sand
I want my generation to keep eating from my plant
Want people to share my heroic story across the globe
Want my name to still remain in their heart
That's is the only way I can smile when I die.

AT LEAST I LOOK COOL

AT LEAST I LOOK COOL

   Standing strong
Still determined
After so much challenges that hit not long
I'm still okay and bold like I just started.

   After fall, at least I look cool
The commitment and bravery is still there
All I care is getting pass barriers like defenders to score a goal
Like Messi, the techniques and power to conquer is still there.

Blown hard
Filled with blood mixed with sorrow
At least I look cool, I choose to withstand
Today is not the reason for my endurance but the prior is tomorrow.

Yesterday lose make me stronger
With those falls, at least I look cool
For me, there is tendency that my tomorrow will be better
No more I should, my only motive is I will.
