I'm Just Asking..


If death is truly love, Can our funeral be tomorrow? And if love kills all, May I lay next to you, a graveyard, What a beautiful sorrow? Therefore, death is breath-taking, Eventhough that's kinda obvious. Old love, does it even deserve the title, Or was I just mistaken? Thank God for his demonstration, I love the vows tied to us. And if marriage has it's limitations, Baby, can you put me on restriction? Im just asking, You know, if that was all true. I praise him with a passion, For christ, I truly love you. If forever was a wish, Can we worship God until it comes true? And if never was a dish, Where's the paper plates, lets barbeque? I was always told by mentors, To stay out of trouble. But if disobedience can save lives, Should I always do what im supposed to? Understand I accept my responsibility, However, If at any time should I die, Who would it affect, emotionally? Im just asking, look calm down. Notice I said if, If this around life's curb, It should come around. And I hope it doesn't flip, Because that would mean death, But also a heavenly trip, To an angelic peaceful rest. But patience, only but one question, Because you know, im just asking. If the lives of others were lessons, Why aren't we all wise then?
