The Man Who Lived Forever

[Intro]
Ha-ha, ha
This is a story about a different kind of person
A different kind of man
Yeah

[Verse 1]
A young child found himself now growing up to be a man
Experiencing conditions that he didn’t quite understand
Went from living in a wonderland to tragedy unplanned
And watched loved ones pass away when their time would be at hand
And it crushed him psychologically when family members would die
He would never grow to accept it, he cried and questioned why
How could this be he replied, thought he’d always be alive
So from that day forward his own mortality he denied
Couldn’t stand to see their demise so a plan would be devised
And his top secret details would soon be realized
He was a wise genius child who went into the laboratory
Using science and great wisdom of every category
And the history of his bloodline he started to pursue
And the best of his ancestral gene pool he didn’t remove
Ancient practices, physical herbal methods, brain types
In one year he mastered every technique to sustain life

[Hook]
Not enough time to see everything he wanted to see
He wanted to live forever so this is how it will be
No person lasts for eternity, only their memory
He had to learn the hard way since he clearly disagreed
Not enough time to see everything he wanted to see
He wanted to live forever so this is how it will be
No person lasts for eternity, only their memory
He had to learn the hard way since he clearly disagreed

[Verse 2]
The best qualities of his family he started to consume
Extracted their DNA without having to be exhumed
He traveled deep in his own mind through the mental track
Tapped into his ancient lineage 10 million years back
Trial and error and great will, experimenting until
He had finalized the filter and formed it into a pill
He was still extremely young so patience he would exert
'Cause he knew that it would take some decades to prove it worked
Turned 30, 40, 50, no amount of years would faze him
He became happy cause now he discovered he wasn’t aging
The feeling was sublime, strength and sharpness of the mind
And though others began to show decline he still was in his prime
With no flaw, found a way to defy natural law
Those who knew him all his life were now baffled by what they saw
The time started revealing, the power was unyielding
He was even looking decades younger than his own children

[Hook]
Not enough time to see everything he wanted to see
He wanted to live forever so this is how it will be
No person lasts for eternity, only their memory
He had to learn the hard way since he clearly disagreed
Not enough time to see everything he wanted to see
He wanted to live forever so this is how it will be
No person lasts for eternity, only their memory
He had to learn the hard way since he clearly disagreed

[Verse 3]
Many more years passed by, he continued to thrive
He was now 95, highly active and still alive
And his wife was very elderly, broken down and decrepit
For years he offered her the pill but she wouldn’t accept it
Nobody liked what he had done, his children didn’t either
He resented his wife and eventually he would leave her
He chose to carry on in the same manner instead
And in 10 years his siblings, his wife and children were dead
He had saw every country and witnessed many a war
Depression was overtaking him, living became a bore
He was now wishing he could somehow clean his mistake up
Every time he went to sleep, he was hoping he wouldn’t wake up
And nobody agreed with his methods, they were appalled
He had many children in his life but he buried them all
He was 410 looking like he’s 29
Contemplating suicide in his life for the first time
Tried to hang himself, blow his brains out, it got worse
Everything he tried backfired on him, now he was cursed
It was clear that he was doomed to suffer, live and be admonished
Disrespected the cycle of life so with life he was punished

[Hook]
Not enough time to see everything he wanted to see
He wanted to live forever so this is how it will be
No person lasts for eternity, only their memory
He had to learn the hard way since he clearly disagreed
