Some sleep and never wake up
Some rob others of their lives
Yet some choose to take their own lives.

Folks,

Most times we awake at dawn and take it for granted
Not knowing that our lives the enemy all night hunted

But on a glance
We sure live by Chance
Not on our own freewill
But by God's grace and goodwill

You take everyone for a ride
Swimming in your pomposity and pride

Yet u fall like a fly
Leaving your family to cry

O man! Behold and know that you are nothing
But dust and breath else you'll rotten

So quit your silly attitude
And give God the gratitude

For there is no life in the grave
Except the one you have now which Christ gave

When you fall you will die
And as log of wood you shall lie

Such indeed is life
So let's live at peace rather than strife

At death all men are equal
Rich or Poor, tall or short, brainy or dummy and what have you down below we may go.
So why the squabble?
When it can knock you down anytime.

Live simple, live goodly and most importantly live well in the sight of God and Man.
