I Cheated Death

   I’ve cheated death
It’s true more than once I say
It’s an absolute miracle
That I am alive today

My father beat me within inches of my life
I’ve attempted suicide
I was bullied and out on the streets
From gangs I had to run and hide

I’ve totaled three cars in accidents
I don’t know how I was able to survive
I’m sensitive to anesthesia and during
Surgeries they struggle to keep me alive

So now I truly know each day is precious
But I live with this weird sensation
That I am living in a Hollywood movie
Known as the final destination

In fact during my last surgery
I took my final breath
They told my wife to call our Pastor
But again I cheated death
