This is Mortality Awareness 101
You may wanna take notes, hey this is gonna be fun
We’ll get into the hard stuff, the nitty gritty
May be a little rough, not always pretty
But we all gotta deal with it sooner or later
So don’t wait until it’s too late alligator
Time to take care of business, plan ahead
You won’t be able to talk about this when you’re dead
Give your loved ones the best gift of all
Make it easy for them, hey it’s your call
Spell it out, get your papers in order
Give away your junk, don’t be a hoarder
Finish your projects, pay off your debts
Now’s not the time to be hedging your bets
Gotta get this topic on the table
Let’s do this yeah, while we’re still able

Let’s talk about death baby
Let’s talk about family
Let’s talk about who decides what and who might disagree
Let’s talk about what matters most to you
No need for explanation
Let’s have that conversation

Time waits for no man
So better not get stuck without a game plan
Get your affairs in order start saving
Cause when it comes to death there’s no safe haven
Tomorrow’s not a guarantee
So you gotta do what’s best for your family
Help them stay strong if you move on and ensure that they can life comfortably
Mortality because just death is just as real as reality
Mortality it don’t discriminate whether it’s you or me

There are people out there who can help with the convo
All about the options, how it can go
The who, what and when, your final agenda
No need to wait til the bitter enda
You fight to be independent and strong
But medical interventions could get it wrong
So if you want your wishes protected
Better be prepared for the unexpected
Fill out the forms you’ll be all set
Better do it now before you forget
Health care proxy, power of attorney
Map it all out before you start the journey
Put in every detail you can think of
These decisions are an act of love
Think about the future, how the story will end
Death literacy, it’s the latest trend
Let’s talk about death baby
Let’s talk about family
Let’s talk about who decides what, no reason to disagree
