It is inevitable that life has a beginning and an end
That our journey begins before birth
That after we are gone our memory lives on
That our minds are in constant search

It is inevitable that today is today
That what we do at this moment is what will live on
That the decisions we make today will effect the rest of our time
That those we meet, we have maybe but one chance to greet
To allow the memory of us to live on

It is inevitable that we all have a time to make the most of us
To give that handshake and pat on the back to someone "just because"

It is inevitable to receive you must give
To gain you must lose
To know you must learn
To succeed you must try
To live you must die

It is inevitable that we reap what we sow
We learn what we know
Through knowledge we grow
