If youre alive, then stay alive

“If you’re alive, then stay alive

Until the day you die

Then you’re dead

And you should stay dead”

Is exactly what I said

 

But why give me that crazy look?

I’m sure at some point in your life

You’ve been more shook

I’m not some unwell crook

 

All I said was

To listen to the law of nature

To play to the rule of nurture

It only takes three generations

For that familiar erasure
