Even with a long Life
We'll all wind up facing the Pearly Gates
I trust when I get there it says open on the door sign
I play Lecrae and Trip Lee on my playlist
Typin more rhymes in my mobile
All while givin credit to the Most High
Who controls our lives at all times
So I try to walk by faith and not sight
Tryin to get to the real truth
So that I can stand tall even with trouble in my rear view
I kneel to one God
That ain't a one man cult or a bad religion
I felt so much pessimism that when I heard the Gospel I just had to listen
I just had to listen to that
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Make it count
Make it count
You better make this life count
I pray to my God
To help and guide us
You can't go back
Soon the present is the past
Soon you're thinkin dang
Why do moments never seem to last
The leaves turn colorful
It reminds us that everything here has an end, don't be sorrowful
When we die God is gonna pull
The curtains away from the main stage
That day may come at any time so don't just worry that you stay paid
I been longin to see heaven before grade eight
Since I grasped the fact that life is finite
I bet heaven at eye sight is more than just stars on a bright night
Death and pain will cease to exist
We'll be seated amidst Jesus who lives
And reigns over us
Even when our skin and bones are dust
Our soul ain't touched
All we will know is love
Make it count
Make it count
You better make this life count
I pray to my God
To help and guide us
You can't go back
Soon the present is the past
Soon you're thinkin dang
Why do moments never seem to last
I think back to my childhood days when I was playin in the garden
On my grandma's lawn and
Ridin on a toy tractor
Hangin with my cousins and my friends, lots of joy and laughter
Soccer in the summer, books in the winter, I wanted to capture
The moment after
Each year, now time even rushes faster
I learned to every dark night there's a bright day after
Flowers even grow after a natural disaster
What I'm sayin is bad times pass and there's a light at the end
So, I understand that it's worth to keep pushin and to fight to the end
And get it right at the end
And get it right at the end
Make it count
Make it count
You better make this life count
I pray to my God
To help and guide us
You can't go back
Soon the present is the past
Soon you're thinkin dang
Why do moments never seem to last
Everything you see is temporary
Every day in your life eventually becomes a fraction of your memory
