Brazen the riffs, orgasmic the wails
Forever, the legacy never will pale
Gravel in trachea, power in throat
Rapture in soulfulness, staying afloat
Poetry set to a keyboard, melodic
Lifestyles extreme, lustfully psychotic
Addicted to fame, despised in same breath
Never foreseeing the imminent death
Stints in the clink or the rehab facility
Always fell flat from your soulful ability
Forward the motion of all things immortal
Somehow the bodies entered death's portal
Squeal to me, guitar, deliver my faith
Cut through my heart with the edge of a lathe
Impart in me voodoo, stick me with pins
Rock will absolve me of all of my sins
Sly as a fox are your fingers to strings
Angels of melody, please spread your wings
Light up the joint and pass me the herb
Spare me the dregs of the wrathful reverb
Play my heartstrings like they are a sitar
Pass through the valves, arouse from afar
Free my demeanor, loosen my stride
Rock will forever be my faithful bride
Prolong the summer, cushion my fall
Winter will spring when the wild beats will call
Light all the candles, illuminate eyes
Play in the smoke and remove your disguise
Ride through horizons into setting suns
Eliminate mimics of firing guns
Sell the belongings you can sacrifice
You will no longer submit to your vice
Abort the pretenses of jaded egos
This music will take away most of your woes
Strengthen the spirit, teenagers at heart
This is the message I want to impart
Go find the impetus to rehabilitate
Travel on trains, your power is the freight
You were born to innately make Earth good
The truth will unravel like paper from wood
Out of the darkness, negativity dies
Into the brightness, identities lie
Forever 27, you will be remembered
Playing in heaven, tears are dismembered
Engendered are memories laden with vinyl
Tender the soul, music is not final
Live on, musicians, continue to thrive
Your art was created to build its own life
The world was your oyster, the spotlight you owned
Forever you sit on rock royalty's throne.
