...To Ashes

Poor man, rich man,
to ashes we all go...
in the end, all are the same,
no status, high or low.

Why should they count
all those things that you do?
In the end all are ashes
and we shall be like you

But our souls won't
turn to ash, soot, or dust.
They'll remain as they are now,
not fade, nor rot, nor rust.

We'll all be ash,
though souls from us may drain,
so the good you've done in life
will never be in vain.

Poor man, rich man,
to ashes we all go...
some good souls will go to God,
while others go below.
