I will not eat my tomorrow today
I pray to God to abstain,
from all the things that may stain,
Coz life is short and i must stay,
So help me God to sustain.
I have some friends at the bar,
They need my help to be stars,
I have the keys but I can't,
Coz time will tell if they die.
I have some gifts on a row,
I will keep them there till I grow,
We need to sit on a desk
And think of life in the next!
