Ty'Zen - Dust

Legends live and then they die
And leave us with the legacies
Because of the way they lived
When they were alive
When it's my time
To die
I want to die empty
I wanna give every part of me
Every chance I get
When it's my time
I want to die fulfilled
I want to know that I'm not
Leaving anything undone
Then back to dust
I will return
As my work lives on
Do you want your name written in the stars
Do you want the fame
Do you want the cars
Would you rather know
That you helped a soul
Do you wanna dodge the hell below
Wake me up if this is some strange twisted nightmare
Cause I'm running
Screaming aloud
But no one hears the sounds
If this is real
I guess I'll cherish it
No matter how it feels
I'll be grateful
That I'm not finished here
I'll be a helping hand
And show you that I care
Because
Everybody's on the edge of trying to survive
Everybody's on the edge of giving up
Everybody's on the edge of their breakthrough
Everybody's on the edge of letting go
Everybody's on the edge of falling in love
Everybody's on the edge of opening their eyes and seeing things clear
I want to give them their flowers while they're here
Cause
When it's my time
To die
I want to die empty
I wanna give every part of me
Every chance I get
When it's my time
I want to die fulfilled
I want to know that I'm not
Leaving anything undone
Then back to dust
I will return
As my work lives on
I met a sweet kind soul named Mary Ann
We talked silly things like
L and A's and grandkids days
And she made me appreciate the simpler things in life
So many things made her cry tears of joy and
I prayed for her every chance that I could that
Maybe someday she'd meet the one who completes me
She made me want to love harder
And care a little bit deeper for the people I meet
And tell them
If you leave before I go
I'll be sitting
Dreaming
Wishing you were here
But your love should be enough until I fade to dust
Let me live on
Let me live for you
And when I'm gone
I'll live through you
Let me live on
Let me live for you
And when you're gone
I'll live through you
I'll live for you
