To live is christ, to die is gain
I asked myself am I a slave
Working for the finer things
In life
Cause I don't ever wanna lose control
Gain this world lose my soul
So free my mind let me go
Goodbye
They tell us toast to the good life (good life)
Toast to the good life
They tell us to give a toast to the good life or at least the one advertised
Let that champagne spill raise them glasses high
Make truth out of wishes
Pursue what your bliss is or cruise with the misses
Boat shoe ocean blue with a view of the
Fishes, you could get used to this feeling
We living life in your youth full of riches
While real treasure pass you by, but that's
Okay you never had this life, so be
Okay with being gratified but never satisfied
Stay distracted by the greed of your appetite
And never sleep cuz you dream of the lavished life
Heart stay empty pockets stay stuffed
Cause when you love money you don' ever got enough
The dream that you living for will make you a slave
Cause the things you're living for can't go to your grave
High school, college, majored in astronomy
Mastered economics, failing at autonomy
Splurge every urge he succumbs to, daydreams to
Nightmares, it's like he never comes to, wishing he could
Backspace, delete or even undo, cause when you're in the
Rat-race the winners yeah they scum too, but no one ever
Told him the cheddar starts to mold and switches into
Swiss then you fiend to fill the holes in but never care
Uh, just look at michael jackson and neverland
Problem is michael jackson was never pan
Desires anchored in this world they could never stand
So you can't buy time just bigger bezels man
Outward appearance of a king got a coretta and a
Couple kids but miss the thing that made martin a better man
Peace with the lord, so when it all falls down
Like a leaf in the fall, still be leaving at the morgue
A wife, a house, kids and a dog
A wife, a house, kids and a dog, and big stuff
He'll gladly go and give for one tomorrow, cause guess what
He ain't never really live at all, see to live is christ
They tell us to give a toast to the good life or at least the one advertised
Let that champagne spill raise them glasses high
