Death is our ultimate debt An absolute sure bet The price we all must pay Let's just get that out of the way The one thing we all know by name As it treats us all the same Our dealer rolls the dice Eventually you'll end up on ice Every day is simply a gift Don't let yourself form a rift Let's all take in the warmth of the sun And just take the time to have fun We should love one another Walk hand in hand with our brother Don't go through life in a rush Treat it like an artist with a brush Shall we take the time to smell flowers We could do it for hours We can explore the streets Rushing is what patience defeats

Why Rush Through Life
Death is our ultimate debt An absolute sure bet The price we all must pay Let's just get that out of the way The one thing we all know by name As it treats us all the same Our dealer rolls the dice Eventually you'll end up on ice Every day is simply a gift Don't let yourself form a rift Let's all take in the warmth of the sun And just take the time to have fun We should love one another Walk hand in hand with our brother Don't go through life in a rush Treat it like an artist with a brush Shall we take the time to smell flowers We could do it for hours We can explore the streets Rushing is what patience defeats
