Eternity

When you really examine the concept of eternity

One will find that there is no end

Life after death is a concept

Humans still don't understand

How long is eternity?

I don't understand

Some say forever, but if it's forever

Then when does it come to an end?

It's more than a concept

And infinite time that we spend

It confirms that our lives here on earth

Are a blip of existence and don't make a dent

As we get older, it creeps in our mind

The thought of the end and beginning of time

The life that we thought that we lived

Doesn't matter

Approachin' the thought

That someday we all die

I get confused when I look in the sky

What is this water hitting my eyes?

Maybe the rain is the pain and shame

That hits earth when God cries

As we get older

We don't care what we did

It's not the things we receive

But the things we give

We try to go back to the time we were kids

But those shoes no longer fit

And then we finally realize that everyone dies

But not everyone lives

So I'm takin' a chance

I'm livin' my life in the moment

And not in the future that's not in my hands

I'm givin' my time to the people who love me

For everything that I am

I'm livin' my life in reality, not for a post

That they'll tap when they open the 'gram

I'm doing whatever it takes

I'm not gonna dwell on my past mistakes

I'm bridgin' the gap between my dreams

And what I see while I'm awake

They say leave it up to fate

Well, fate favors those who take

Cause if eternity's forever

And all this is temporary, why wait?

Humanity's lost

We obsess the price of material things

But at what cost?

Then treat time like currency

And spend it for applause

Because we think that life is just a game

We can turn on and off

We build, we break, renew, replace

We nine-to-five and count the days

For forty years till sixty-five

Then live off what our pension pays

We fall in line as mental slaves

Our bodies work, our minds are caged

And that's why people say

The richest place you'll find is at the graves

Full of hopes and dreams

That people never chased

Full of feelings that we felt

But never got to say

All the thoughts inside our heads

That we kept stored and locked away

As our age increased and we got old

And everything decayed

And when we finally realize

That our whole life was not a game

And that time was a commodity

That we could not regain

And that we were in control

And there was no one else to blame

Is the day that we change

It's eternity, no end (no end)

Eternity, no end (no end)

It's eternity, no end

Eternity, no end (no end)

It's eternity, no end (no end)

It's eternity, no end (no end)

It's eternity, no end

Eternity, no end

What are you doing with your time?

What is your definition of happiness?

Are you giving more than you're taking?

And finally

If it were to all end right now

What are you holding on to

That you need to let the world see?
