*Listening to broadway's Hamilton, really good actually, and I heard this which hit home*

I imagine death so much

it feels more like a memory

When's it gonna get me?

In my sleep? Seven feet

ahead of me?

If I see it coming,

do I run or do I let it be?

Is it like a beat without a melody?

See, I never thought

I'd live past twenty

Where I come from

some get half as many

Ask anybody why we livin' fast

and we laugh, reach for a flask

We have to make this moment last,

that's plenty

...

For the first time I'm thinking past tomorrow
