When I've almost given up

But we all need love

Uh-oh

Teaching me to—

Don't listen to this in 40 years, this is not for posterity (No)

Just for this once I got clarity, barely, errantly

Hear mistakes I made carefully

Heresy I say prayerfully

Just for this moment of charity

Rare moment you share with me, here

Don't listen to this in 40 years, listen to what it inspired (Yes)

If this spittin' tripped a wire (Yes)

By which I mean lit a fire (Lit)

In someone raised on the songs (Up)

By which I mean lifted higher

I don't mean the kid is retired, I mean when the fresh in the fridge is expired

Choir

Pour the champagne, pass the plantain

Pour the champagne, pass the plantain

Nothing lasts forever, that's a damn shame

No one lasts forever, babe

But if it did, nothing can change

Pour the champagne, pass the plantain

Pour the champagne, pass the plantain

Nothing lasts forever, that's a damn shame

But if it did, nothing can change

Yeah, don't listen to this in 40 years, fresh waters restore life

Seeds fall so there's more life

Death as a metaphor for life (Yeah)

Don't listen to this in 40 years, even if no one is more nice

Even if nobody write more, uh, that doesn't mean that it's more right

That doesn't mean that it's pure light (Pure)

Just for a moment of foresight

What's said in this short life, win my wars then it's your fight

Who can translate? Who can read the verses and then reinterpret? (Who can translate?)

Who can translate so the people heard it? All the people hurtin'

Who can be the person who can lead with purpose? Be of service?

This ain't church, but indeed it's service

Take these words from the streaming service

Cheers

Pour the champagne, pass the plantain

Pour the champagne, pass the plantain (Yeah)

Nothing lasts forever, that's a damn shame

But if it did, nothing can change

Pour the champagne, pass the plantain

Pour the champagne, pass the plantain

Nothing lasts forever, that's a damn shame

But if it did, nothing can change

Uh

Cheers

That's fear of death
