Momma was a moon, daddy was a sun I'm a man shot down by a law man's gun All must die and baby look my way
He said listen to me son while you still can You've gotta take life's cards with a loving hand You can never fight another day
Because we're born to die In this life, when its time Think about what you leave behind You've got a love for life Take your time, make it right Before you go, you can shine a light Guard your promise, close your heart Told my secret to the stars Now I know the reason why We're born to die
I was fifteen, yeah I knew it all I tried to run before I knew how to crawl And couldn't nobody seem to make me understand
But in this life you've got to pick your fights And even if you loose you've got to know you tried Sometimes you've got to fall before you dance
Because we're born to die In this life, when its time Think about what you leave behind You've got a love for life Take your time, make it right Before you go you can shine a light Guard your promise, close your heart Told my secret to the stars Now I know the reason why We're born to die
Because we're born to die In this life, when its time Think about what you leave behind You've got a love for life Take your time, make it right Before you go you can shine a light Guard your promise, close your heart Told my secret to the stars Now I know the reason why We're born to die Born to die
