HOW I WANT TO BE REMEMBERED

And so they say, that everything happens for a reason
Life is full of mystery, at times stranger than fiction
When good things happen,  we erupt in celebration
But when we hit the bottom, we put God in question

Miseries, tragedies, people seek answer in  religion
Gave them hope, and at times, peace and absolution
Yet some men used God's name to feed  their greed
Asked donations,  indulgences, for  God they  feared

We live a life, but what really is that touches our  soul?
Godliness, faith and hope, of going to Heaven, a goal
We are all given gifts,  and  in our life tw'll play a role
Just don't know when and how, God will give us a call

Our time is short, its not enough to open all the doors
Some will be caught in destiny, or will alter their course
They will do anything to succeed, but will end up worse
Gain power and riches, yet be unhappy, full of  remorse

For every man's an artist, and most just don't know it
And even beggar paints, a picture of misery and guilt
So when we see them dirty, sick and lying in the streets
We will come to open our heart and examine our quilt

Everything is a beauty, for its really about what we see
We cannot do much about the past, just have to let it be
We still have time to mend fences, and meet old friends
Still have time to write, how we wanted to be remembered
