Haven't written in a while I guess it was because of my fear To admit to you all that my time is near "You're dying young." Is what the doctor had to say "Your time is short. Live your life to the fullest every day." Each day was a denial to myself what was true I couldn't face the facts. I didn't know what to do. So I hid the truth from myself, and yes from you too. Now I feel myself wasting away I guess that's why I'm writing today To let you know not everything is here to stay I know cause I'm dying young Getting ready to embrace the grave Immersed in Death, it's forever slave "The only love there is, is the love we make."--Prince |
