[Intro]
[Verse 1]
If I were to die today what d be left behind?
You know I ain t got much in this world that I call mine
I ve had plenty of chances to make some dough
But I was lookin for somethin else you know
Livin the dream down at the stream
Tryin to build a life that means something to me
And that s what I seek
[Verse 2]
I like fishin but what I need is my gal by my side
You know I ain t perfect but you know I tried
I ve had plenty of chances to mess this up
Believe you me I ve taken some
But she keeps me here
We re tryin to build a life and that means something to me
And that s what I seek
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
If I were to get high today who would I hurt?
You know I ain t botherin no one If I smoke my dessert
I ve had plenty of chances to play it straight
But I was runnin a different kind of race
Runnin in place it ain t for me
Tryin to build a life that makes me feel free
And that s what I seek
[Interlude]
[Verse 4]
If I were to die today what would people say?
You know I don t usually care but I might that day
I ve had plenty of chances to do my best
I was there and I did so I will rest
And I was will rest in peace
I built life and it always meant something to me
And that s what I seek
[Outro]
