As I get older, I know why the good die young
It's because the bad are having too much fun
We love our mortal lives and all that is in it
While those who don't are here for only minutes
We smoke we drink, we procreate without love
It's now wonder why God stays up above
There are some that still love him and try to be good
It's hard to tame the wolf and do what we should
All men were once beasts, feral and untamed
But god made a woman, which is when it all changed
The bond between the two genders was at first strong
Now a days, it's belittled, diminished, and long gone
We base our relationships with weak foundations
It's now wonder why we end up as miserable creations
We only use each other manipulate and lie
That is why we must grow old to die
In my eyes and the way, I see
The people who die young must feel tranquil and free
Sure, down here we can have some fun
It's not without chaos, turmoil and being on the run
Happiness is a luxury that is rare on earth
We are almost born greedy since the day of our birth
We think once we have everything, we will find happiness
When all we really need is someone to love when our life is a mess
