I CHEATED DEATH

Tuesday death came knocking
at my hearts door.
And I cheated death once more.

The grim reaper had to leave,
at the hospital,I gave him a fight,
cause I wasn't ready, to go into the light.

They gave me a shot of epinephrine
and with that I did win.
and the reaper had to leave me again.

As my brother told my sister one year ago
DON'T GO INTO THE LIGHT.
Well I gave that monster a good old fight.

They got my adrenalin flowing right
now I'm at home ready to write.
And the reaper has lost his fight.

He may have had his grip on me
now I laugh in his face,
Because this time I won the race.
