Momma was a moon, daddy was a sun

I’m a man shot down by a law man’s gun

All must die and baby look my way

He said listen to me son while you still can

You’ve gotta take life's cards with a loving hand

You can never fight another day

Because we’re born to die

In this life, when its time

Think about what you leave behind

You’ve got a love for life

Take your time, make it right

Before you go, you can shine a light

Guard your promise, close your heart

Told my secret to the stars

Now I know the reason why

We’re born to die

I was fifteen, yeah I knew it all

I tried to run before I knew how to crawl

And couldn’t nobody seem to make me understand

But in this life you’ve got to pick your fights

And even if you loose you've got to know you tried

Sometimes you’ve got to fall before you dance

Because we’re born to die

In this life, when its time

Think about what you leave behind

You’ve got a love for life

Take your time, make it right

Before you go you can shine a light

Guard your promise, close your heart

Told my secret to the stars

Now I know the reason why

We’re born to die

Because we’re born to die

In this life, when its time

Think about what you leave behind

You’ve got a love for life

Take your time, make it right

Before you go you can shine a light

Guard your promise, close your heart

Told my secret to the stars

Now I know the reason why

We’re born to die

Born to die
