if i must die
Rising daily to the call of nature
no lazy person deserves a future
what's a past without a future
to ensure my future i need to feature
to this measure i rise daily refusing to be lazy
giving all my years daily input of a future blessed
i refuse to sit as a plate filled with flies
with no lazy hands to cleanse
like daily oil i grease my strength
i made sure daily i rise to any call
every challenge i grab with a fist
like a must win war i brace myself to be strong
i don't allow any space to be called a sluggard at all
meeting my family needs and ensuring they get an healthy meat
oh if i had learn to die my own death
this retirement would have been a merriment
have spent my years on others farm
devoting my strength to build them a firm pillar stand
now am retired and have to join in waiting for my pension alert
if only while i was vibrant
i decided to die my own death
i would ask myself of more energy
to build a fortress of great rest

don't be like me my great friend
while usurping your own strength
in getting your daily bread
ensure you start up a business that bears your own sweat
while in the field of experience
you would have indirectly build up your own fortress
that's just how to die your own death.
