Title: How Do You Want To Be Remembered?

Easy come, easy go.
Fame is fleeting, or didn't you know.
Striving for that ring of gold.
Before you know it, you've died before you've grown old.

Memories you leave behind.
But what sort, the good or bad kind?
What kind of name, will you leave?
What type of person, is really up your sleeve?

Chorus: How do you want people to remember you?

Were you uptight or were you really cool?
Were you known for your clothes and your pretty hair?
Or did you always show people how much you care?

How do you want people to remember you?
Were you kind and giving or were you cruel?
Were you known for the way you played B-ball?
Or did you arise to the occasion and answer the call?

It's okay, alright.
If good things about you come to the light.
It's nice to have praise from man.
But it's better from God, cause life's in His hand.

Never forget, serve God to the fullest.
You'll never have regret.
When you do meet your demise.
You'll be in God's memory and you will have the prize.

Chorus: How do you want God to remember you?
Were you uptight or were you really cool?
Were you known for your clothes and your pretty hair?
Or did you always show people how much you care?

How do you want God to remember you?
Were you kind and giving or were you cruel?
Were you known for the way you played B-ball?
Or did you arise to the occasion and answer the call?
Repeat.
Ad lib.
