All I Need


On a deserted island by my lonesome,

What is one thing I could use forever,

And not trade out because I'm far away from home.

Is it a thing, or a lover?

No, it's the memories that should be cherished 

Not a cell phone, computer, or gaming system.

It's the memories about my idol who perished,

You can cherish an item,

But the memories of my father will stick with me for as long as I live
