I Won't Die

Six o' clock in the morning and I can't wait to get my day going
I've been sleepin' and dreamin', now it's time to get up with the sun
Rise, rise above the ashes of yesterday's deeds undone
Everyday's a blessin' and I must confess that I've been waistin' so many, but now I'm ready to rest

My soul in peace knowing I've done what I came to do
Oh dear God, please give me the strength to follow through
A song has to be sung from the heart and the lungs
Before I leave, I've got to speak my truth

(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me
(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me

I play guitar at each sundown and I've still got so much to do now
But, this is the one and only moment where we get to keep the magic unfolding
My mind's been telling me what it's been thinking about, trying to figure out how
But I don't want that doubt creepin', ruin all the visions I've been having
So I imagine it already happened

You can make a wish, but if you don't believe it won't come true
You can have it all before you plant a seed you can taste the fruit
Has to be sung from the heart and the lungs
Before I leave, I've got to speak my truth

(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me
(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me

(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me
(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me

(One more time)

I know what I'm supposed to do now
I've got this feelin' and I've got to let it out
Yeah, I know what I'm supposed to do now
I've got this feelin' and I've got to, I've got to let it, out

It's almost midnight, there's a full moon
Outside my window this day gonna be over soon
Count my blessings and say thank you
For this life I know I can't give too much gratitude

For I was born into this world, I had no form and then I came to take the shape that they gave me and the name they named me
Like a lion in a cave, asleep with no escape, livin' like a slave, but now I'm wide awake

Now I'm free and howlin' with my voice I choose to use it
But no one else can tell this story like I do, yet
It has to be sung from the heart and the lungs
Before I leave, I've got to speak my truth

(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me
(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me

(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me
(I won't die, I won't die)
With my music inside me

(Here we go)
(All together now)
