We Die – Yewande Adedokun

Say to the man that refused to come down

That we all die

Tell them all not to weep like clowns

For we all die

Too mean to admit, but true to the eyes like the cloud, we all die

 

Waste no time

It’s time to die

Such peace it brings now away from the fear of old

Let’s be glad to die

Frightening but the soul finds joy

When it hears the song, we all die

 

Allow me it says

Allow it you must

Tell the man that has it all

That we all die

That we all sing that song

That we all die

It is not just, but it is fair

That we all die

Sing O sing the song of soul

We all die, we all die
