Please Forget Me

I'll only live another fifty years or so And I want to walk the path untrod I don't want to give any weight to this ego Or try to deny my many flaws 'Cause the way I am I don't have much time To live out so many imagined lives So you live your life and I'll live mine Please forget me when I'm gone; I've no need to live on Please forget me and move on; 'cause your own life will not last long I know you're young and it seems there's so much time For living out these many dreams Keep having fun but don't cloud a growing mind 'Cause this life is longer than it seems 'Cause the way things are You got to focus in On one thing if you ever hope to win 'Cause the time you spend won't come back again Please forget me when I'm gone I've no need to live on Please forget me and move on 'Cause your own life will not last long Now I read the histories of people I don't know And wonder if I'm doing this to stagnate or to grow I've yet to see a time for me to reap what I have sown Forgot the truth I learned from you: this life is not my own Please forgive me when I'm gone For all the things that I did wrong Please forgive me and move on 'Cause your own life will not last long
