How Do You Want to Be Remembered

How do you want to be remembered?
As a sinner or a saint?
As a hero or a villain?
Think about the steps you take
How do you want to be remembered
When theyre standing at your grave?
On your tombstone, what is written?
Think about the steps you take
All my life
Ive been searching for the answers
How did I lose so much
Of the things that really matter?
Is there no paradise
Cause I feel no joy or laughter
Seems everything I touch
Only turns into disaster
So I ask myself
How do you want to be remembered?
As a sinner or a saint?
As a hero or a villain?
Think about the steps you take
How do you want to be remembered
When your children come to aid
And they need some inspiration?
Think about the steps you take
Do I reach for love (Do I reach for love)
Only when she says shes leaving ? (Only when she says shes leaving?)
Do I pray above (Do I pray above)
Only when I feel Im needing?
See, I cant sleep at night
When sheep turn into demons
Theres no alibi
When the jury knows your secret
So I ask myself
How do you want to be remembered?
As a sinner or a saint?
As a hero or a villain?
Think about the steps you take
How do you want to be remembered
When your children come to aid
And they need some inspiration?
Think about the steps you take
Cause on the day when you face judgement
You better have your story straight (Your story straight)
Were you a good friend and a husband
To the wife that gives you love, love, love?
You love, love, love, oh
How do you want to be remembered?
As a sinner or a saint?
As a hero or a villain?
Think about the steps you take
