my life has changed forever
from normal, my everyday life now does sever
july 4th weekend, fireworks were going off inside of me
my racing heart had finally brought me to bended knee
afib, supraventricular tachycardia...
congestive heart failure was my flava'
rushed to the icu...
sign these here papers the doctor asked me to do
we've exhausted all medicines, all of them we've went through
i ask, can i call my wife in case i never speak to her again
there was no answer, it was the most scared and alone i ever felt then
icu doctors huddled and staring at me like i am a mystery
they shock me and send thousands of volts of electricity through me
the paddles burn and welt
my chest and back
my room filled with chaos it certainly did not lack
bells and alarms made my ears want to cry
lying there thinking....it was my time to die.
