If I Die Young

[Hookx2]
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

[Verse 1: Adverse]
If I die young, please just let it be…
Put on a smile when you remember me
I’m never gone, still in your hearts
Still in your memory, I’m never too far
Tell my family I love them with every part of me
Even though it’ll be so hard to watch me leave…
I’ll still watch over them from the sky
Even though I will, the love won’t die…
Here in spirit, and still living through my songs
So play em anytime you need to listen to Shaun
Spread my love and my kindness to all…
I know I made an impact on every smile I caused
I wonder how many people would really care?
Or would notice that I disappeared…
Would they remember me for my smile or frown?
Would I of impacted the lives I’m around?
Either way, If today I stopped my livin’
I’d be up in heaven with Grandpa, politicin’
Sharing memories and having talks of wisdom
We’ll wait for you guys, So If I die young…

[Verse 2: Adverse]
If I die young whether from accident or reason
Don’t call god and ask him why I’m leavin
If tomorrow is the day I rest for good
I lived my 17 years the best I could..
Brought joy and smiles, taught beautiful lessons
So my short life span will be viewed as a blessin
I wish that I could’ve showed more of me…
But at least I can say that it was short n sweet
Even though I’m not quite ready to leave…
I’ll accept it when god’s sendin for me…
Just make sure that I go out the best I can
Buy the best suit you could dress me in
Because I’ve got to look my freshest when
I’m knocking on the gates like ‘let me in’
Hold the bucket of tears for my friends and fam
Make sure them tears never shed again
Sure I wish I was dealt a better hand…
But my parents couldn’t of raised a better man
And for that, and that sole reason…
If I’d be remembered like that, then so be it..
