I died one time - I ain'tgonna die no mo'.
I died one time - and I ain'tgonna die no mo'.
't was a hard time a-dyin' - that I know fo' sure.

First thing I remember - I had to sell my soul.
Yes - I remember - I had sold my soul.
I sold it to the upgrown and my heart turned cold.

I found out what it means, not to tell the truth.
I found out what it means, not to tell the truth.
And I learned by the years - that's what you can use.

Just try to betray - yourself and any man!
Just try to betray - yourself and any man!
You might feel naked - you're lucky if you can.

Politics disturbed me - I suffered reading news.
Politics disturbed me - and I suffered reading news.
I blamed it on mankind -  I blamed it on my youth.

But then I found out - money rules the world.
Oh yeah - I found out - that money rules the world.
Learnt to fight this awfulfeelin' - and it still does hurt.

So I decided - to quit the world I knew.
Yes -  I decided - to quit the world I knew -
to build a wall of sorrow and restart my life all new.

Done died one time - but never I'll die again.
I done died one time - never want to die again.
As long as sun will rise - I won't fear no pain.

I found out - that my heart would turn to ice.
I found out - my heart will turn to ice.
I realize the fact - I've got to pay a price.

I died one time - and the whole world died with me.
I died one time - and the whole world died with me.
Just let me have my future - and live a noble fantasy!
