I'm not hoping for fame.
I didn't want to die in vain.
I'm hoping for a lesson.
Hold your loved a little tighter.
Keep your sweet a little warmer.
Save a friend a little safer.
Thread them all a little closer.
Teach your kid to be more wiser.
I just wanted to be seen,
I wanted to be close,
Definitely a little heard.
This could have never been the last second,
Yet every second could be your last.
What do you say?
Give it a shot?
Spread the word, whatever!
Just change the plot.
Nobody has to die tonight.
Nobody had to learn from me.
And nobody has to learn from the next one either.
How many lives will it take?
Just how many?
And if you do not listen to me,
Then I pray to God before I go.
I hope you listen to the next one.
