It’s been real, for the few who stand here today
Rest assured, everything is ok
I’m content, lived life every chance I got
Made a few mistakes, but they could not make me stop
I continued dreaming, and realized every one
Tried to become better every day, my path was never done
I’ve done things most people dream about doing
I was constantly coming and constantly going
I hated my life but loved it at the same time
Hope that when you write about me, it’s the perfect rhyme
Cause I had a thing with words, and seeing results
Wanted to be forever young not a zombie adult
And don’t think cause I’m dead it changes a thing
You have not been forgiven, my hate is still standing
So if you’re at the wake, or funeral as if I’m cool with you
I hope they stopped you at the door like I instructed them to
Make sure you played the songs that I asked for
Smokey Robinson – Really gonna miss you
Michael Jackson – Gone too soon
Marvin Gaye – If I die tonight
James Ingram – There is no easy way
In case you forgot these are the ones you should play
My family meant the world to me, even if it didn’t seem so at times
You were a big part of my creativity, always placed you in between the lines
For my friends I have no other words expect I’m sorry
And for those whose heart I stole you get a different sorry
Alas I don’t have any sentimental words to share
The world has turned to nothing for me, no longer have to care
I don’t wish to see any tears shed for me, not a drop
I’m not worth it, and I’m ok so please stop
Let my work help you if you wish to think of me
Read it all to understand why I was crazy
No longer will you have to put up with my rage and complaining
My annoying habits or the nonsense I was saying
I always hated humans that feeling never passed
And from time to time I would be overwhelmed by my past
I lived a good life can’t really complain
I loved the good times and laughed at my pain
So now that I’m dead, you can think of the fun we had
Smile when you think of me, I’m not worth getting sad
So this is Dwight Cheuk-a-lam aka Vino Venitas telling you how I feel
And make sure to engrave this on my tombstone, “it’s been real”
