Wages of Sin

I wonder what I'll be when I die in sin
As my body lies in a casket
All black on black with a white clothe in my chest pocket
All viewing my face like I've just closed my eyes
And then everyone cries
Because it's hard to say goodbye
When they'll never see you again
And can't bare with the pain
My friends all in tears
Missing the good times we had by the block drinking beers
Looking back at what we did and been through
They can't believe it's all true
May God rest his soul they say
Am six feet under with just the earth and roses
My family pay their last respect
Repenting to my soul for their past mistakes
It's hard to lose a family member
Because it's painful to remember
