Michael (Demo)

I once knew a boy, twenty years old
Living life on his own, doing nothing he was told
Lifting weights every day, skipping class, getting pay
No one saw this coming, he got tired of running

Running from something no one can define
Only answers to the puzzle are locked up in his mind
His mind was overworked, holding it in
At a party Friday night, next morning caught in sin

What charges us to take our live
Who’s choice is it to make?
Just one life is all it takes
Exposing what’s at stake

The legacy, the legend
You’re in heaven
The legacy the legend
We know you’re in heaven

What charges us to take our live
Who’s choice is it to make?
Just one life is all it takes
Exposing what’s at stake

The stake between the heart
The living man will now depart
So lonely on his own
His final stitch is sewn

Oh brother of this Earth
Please know you are worth
More than these words can explain
More than secrets, more than pain

Michael, where’d the pain come from?
Mikey, what have we done?
Some may say you lost the race
But we all know you’ve won

What charges us to take our live
Who’s choice is it to make?
Just one life is all it takes
Exposing what’s at stake

The legacy, the legend
You’re in heaven
The legacy the legend
We all know you’re in heaven

Today we let a child go, today we let our crying flow
Today will mark, no not the end, he will start a new life again
The golden son, this boy was one of a kind
He can fly, he can fly, he will fly, he will fly

Friends and family, come together, come together
Mourn the loss endure the weather, endure the weather
The breeze that blew along your face
The breeze that came and took your place

I may not be your best of friend
But I will be here to defend

The legend, the legacy
The legend, the legacy
In our hearts, you will be
In our hearts, you will be
In our hearts, you will be

In our hearts, Mikey, you will be

What charges us to take our live
Who’s choice is it to make?
Just one life is all it takes
Exposing what’s at stake


The legacy, the legend
Michael, you’re in heaven
The legacy the legend
We know you’re in heaven
