Not For Me To Say

To the god of the universe you may well pray
But from you this will not keep the life's reaper away
Your last remains may be destined for a hole in the ground
But you believe that for your god's kingdom post bodily death your soul will be bound

Of a life for the soul after bodily death is not for me to say
For this call me agnostic or atheist or call me what you may
So many believe good souls have wings to fly
To god's universal kingdom somewhere in the sky

Human beings live on an average of a seven decade span
A few years more for a woman than it is for a man
But to live as a good person you do not need a religious belief
It does not mean if you are an agnostic or an atheist that you are a thief

Of the flames of the urn or the dark depths of the grave
From the reaper of lives your god you will not save
Every life form and this includes humans from the great to the small
To the scythe of the dark one of death eventually must fall.
