My Last Goodbye
Lyrics
There's a difference between expecting the moment you die
And not expecting the moment you die
If you're not expecting it you don't have the time to fear
This about a day I should have died
My life flashed before my eyes on May 21, 2018
I don't wish this kind of pain and blood stains on anybody man it's crazy
I don't understand why, oh my God
This about a day I should have died
Thinking about it could have been stabbed or had my throat crushed but instead no
For some reason I get another day to breathe
But this a fragile reality so many "what if's" and "coulda be's" right
This about a day I should have died
Man I still have post-traumatic stress about it
When I slammed into that gate there was no way around it
The doc said this should have been worse by the sound of it
Something should have burst up in my stomach
This about a day I should have died
It doesn't make sense that I'm alive but God said no
It is not your time son, no
You're gonna stay alive, but why
Ever had your life flash before your eyes
Ever thought about why you're still alive
Life is so fragile so I promise to be more careful
I don't want this to be my last goodbye
This about a day I almost died
Taking pictures with my wife but in a matter of seconds
I was bleeding on the ground apologizing assuming it would be fine
But I realized how stupid of me to think that it was alright ugh
This about a day I almost died
I turned that corner on my board and I had 3 seconds to make a choice
Do I crash and die at the age of 24 years old
Or can I stop it sooner at 25 miles an hour no
This about a day I almost died
I chose to stop it sooner but in my choosing I suffered internal bruising
Even while I'm writing I'm hurting but it could have been worse and
That's no coincidence Jesus gave me another chance and
This about a day I almost died
In those 3 seconds I thought about how I'm abandoning my wife
Leaving my family, leaving my friends
Leaving everybody that loves me and not having any future kids
Ever had your life flash before your eyes
Ever thought about why you're still alive
Life is so fragile so I promise to be more careful
I don't want this to be my last goodbye
This about a day I didn't die
How could I be so stupid, I risked my life almost boxed up in a suit
Flowers on my chest laying with my eyes closed
I can't even imagine you looking down on me in that casket no
This about a day I didn't die
God gave me this lesson as a blessing
I realized that I was letting my stress get in front of my marriage
Now I know something has gotta change
Now nothing's gonna be the same
This about a day I didn't die
Now I got a list of names that I need to show His love before that day
Comes, and I know I gotta say something,
So they can see the light before they go into the light
But this about a day that I'm alive
I love you so much, I'm never gonna let you go, I don't care this doesn't rhyme
Matti, Mom, Dad, Rebecca, Mark, Daulton, Nate,
Devin, Cameron, Ceidric, JJ, Justin, all my friends and family
And these are just some of the people that mean the most to me
I don't even have enough space to mention everyone
So just know that if you heard this song, I love you
And if I ever acted like I didn't, I'm sorry, please forgive me
Life is so fragile so I promise to be more careful
I don't want this to be my last goodbye
There's a difference between expecting the moment you die
And not expecting the moment you die
If you're not expecting it, you don't have time to fear
You don't have the time to think about everything you're going to lose
Everything you lived for
Everything you wanted to do
The legacy you wanted to leave
The wife, the kids, friends, and family you're about to leave
But when you're expecting it
Every single one of those thoughts can pass through your mind in a matter of seconds
If you're expecting it and for some reason God gives you a second chance
Don't see that as just a coincidence and don't live the way you were living before
He keeps some for a reason and He takes some for a reason
To show you that good results in what seems to be a chaotic situation
You may not see it right away
But I promise as God promises
"The sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory
That is to be revealed to us"
But if I would have died, I have peace with the fact that Jesus never lied
And that I will be with Him in heaven
