Every single human being that has ever lived was an entirely unique creation.
|
Never, ever, ever to be repeated again.
|
|
Sometimes I wonder, what they'll say when I die.
|
|
When I die, when I die when I die, let me fly. Let me fly.
|
When I die, when I die when I die, let me fly. Let me fly.
|
|
[Verse 1:]
|
When I die please don't mourn, cry not for me.
|
When I die please don't lie, write a song for me.
|
Tell 'em what I did right and what I did wrong.
|
Don't say rest in piece, help me live on.
|
Peace to any enemies in my memories, I forgive 'em.
|
Most rappers died before their legacy started living.
|
Whether, it's by natural causes or a car collision,
|
Think of hard hitting bars I've written, not my chart position
|
In the event of my death be happy that I left the drama.
|
Those who love me, don't paint me as an 'effin martyr.
|
What I've done in life, I hope it echoes ever after.
|
Some wanna' reassure [?] me, I'm more like Kevin Carter.
|
|
'Cause every lyric that I've written is a photograph.
|
They think life is infinite, but don't know the half.
|
Names die every day, time won't remember most of ours,
|
Just remember me as a true soul that showed his heart.
|
|
When it's me, when it's me when it's me. Set me free. Set me free.
|
When it's me, when it's me when it's me. Set me free. Set me free.
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
When it's me, I want you to know that I loved You all.
|
I wasn't happy here, I could never be comfortable.
|
This one's for you if we fell out over something small.
|
Don't watch it, We'll all imperfect and vulnerable
|
This ain't about being scared or brave.
|
When it's me, death is something I'm prepared to face.
|
When it's me don't even waste your tears, I'm safe.
|
Hairs were raised by my music, anywhere it's played.
|
When I die, don't lie about what my life was.
|
If I die with nothing else, just take my Love.
|
When I'm dust in the ground with my eyes shut.
|
Don't count my money, just count the lives that I've touched.
|
When it's me, play this on your MP3.
|
It's about the fans, not how press see me.
|
Don't say "Rest in peace" just let me be.
|
When it's me, please God, just set me free.
|
|
When I Go, when I go when I go. Save my soul, save my soul.
|
When I Go, when I go when I go. Save my soul, save my soul.
|
|
[Verse 3:]
|
When I go, will I be destined for Heaven, or Hell below?
|
Until then, I will never know.
|
Pray for my Family, pray for my Enemies.
|
Pray that I'm sent to a place that is Heavenly.
|
Pray for my present and pray for my legacy.
|
And pray that it's in a positive way they remember me.
|
The second I die someone will start a new life.
|
So ask yourself, what will they say when you die?
|
|
When you die, when you die when you die. Say "Goodbye" say "Goodbye".
|
When you die, when you die when you die. Say "Goodbye" say "Goodbye".
|
