THERE IS MORE BEFORE I DIE


There is more before i die

because i know how to fly without wings

There is more  before i die

because its allways low before its high

There is more before i die

because ive faced shame before fame

 

There is more before i die

because i now can smile within my cry

because i am strong in their critisism

because i laugh when they least expected

because i am way high above their cluster

There is more before i die

because i run when they run out of fuel

because i am crowned when they frown

There is more before i die since i became human before i noticed
