Heaven

Trying to be the people we are,
Just to earn a place in the skies.
Forcing ourselves to be something we're not,
So we don't end up on the other side.
There should be no need for heaven and hell,
We should live the right lives in this.
Don't wait for the afterlife,
Your soul is something not to be dismissed.

Be the person you for you are,
And try to stay on the right line of peace.
But don't change for the sake of death,
There's no contract for a dying lease.
You can't expect the pearly gates,
Or the devil chaining to the wall,
Just live the best life you can.
And you just pick yourself up when you fall.
