why the panic for god's sake
you must leave all you cannot take
a single thing a single thought
at the end all comes to naught


all the things we leave behind
include our deeds include our mind
the ego just disintegrates
there's nothing left at heaven's gates


your only job is here and now
without pretension or a bow

so clean the heart - eliminate
all the worry violence hate

and leave you ready
leave you true

to meet your maker
when you're through
