Wages of Sin


I wonder what I'll be when I die in sin As my body lies in a casket All black on black with a white clothe in my chest pocket All viewing my face like I've just closed my eyes And then everyone cries Because it's hard to say goodbye When they'll never see you again And can't bare with the pain My friends all in tears Missing the good times we had by the block drinking beers Looking back at what we did and been through They can't believe it's all true May God rest his soul they say Am six feet under with just the earth and roses My family pay their last respect Repenting to my soul for their past mistakes It's hard to lose a family member Because it's painful to remember
