Memento Mori

[Intro: ​sapientdream]
If we fight
That the walls we built so high up fallen so low
Fallen so low
If we fight
That the walls we built so high up falling so low
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

[Bridge]
Can ya
Make the time stop? (Time stop)
It’s moving too fast (Too fast)
They wanna get first place (First place)
I’d rather be dead last (Dead)
I wish we could live forever in this moment
No, I never wanna pass away

[Verse 1: Foster]
Yeah, uh
We take for granted, instead of taking advantage of
All the little things that life’s constantly handing us
But life is beautiful, truly I couldn’t ask for more
I’m blessed to be myself, and honestly that’s all I’m asking for
I know it’s hard to see the beauty in the struggle
Sometimes we get so caught up in our feelings, we just see the trouble
A couple times a day, I try to shrug the stress away
But pain is so subjective, our perspective gets to call the play
And in this day and age, the pressure of success can crush you
Spent so much time prepping for the future that the present rush you

[Refrain: Foster]
So take a moment, appreciate the life you livin'
Only given once, so take advantage 'til it’s taken from you

[Chorus: Foster]
Memento (Memento)
Mori (Mori)
Why we gotta end the story?
Why we gotta end the story?
Why we gotta end the story?
Memento (Memento)
Mori (Mori)
Why we gotta end the story?
Why we gotta end the story?
I don’t wanna end this story

[Bridge]
Can ya
Make the time stop? (Time stop)
It’s moving too fast (Too fast)
They wanna get first place (First place)
I’d rather be dead last (Dead)
I wish we could live forever in this moment
No, I never wanna pass away

[Verse 2]
Yeah, uh
Life is precious, so cherish it while you’ve got the chance
I’m trying to teach myself to see the good in every circumstance
'Cause you never know when your time's up and it’s time to go
So best to treat today like any day could be your funeral
See when we’re young, we tend to think that we’re invincible
But nothing in this life is guaranteed, and that’s a principle
To live by, sometimes I wonder will I?
Live to see my thirties, pass my eighties, or not live to see the sun rise?
Uh, so every night before I close my eyes and fall asleep
I pray the Lord, my soul to keep

[Refrain: Foster]
So take a moment, appreciate the life you livin'
Only given once, so take advantage 'til it’s taken from you

[Chorus: Foster]
Memento (Memento)
Mori (Mori)
Why we gotta end the story? (Memento Mori)
Why we gotta end the story? (Memento Mori)
Why we gotta end the story? (Memento Mori)
Memento (Memento)
Mori (Mori) (Memento Mori)
Why we gotta end the story? (Memento Mori)
Why we gotta end the story? (Memento Mori)
I don’t wanna end this story (Memento Mori)

[Outro: Mac Miller]
What do you think it?
I mean, I think I, I look at, for me, as being able to touch and, and affect people in a positive way
And have, have music that, that lasts for a long time, have a long career and, um
Just, you know, being able to be influential in, in a positive way
