Some men live For what honor and titles can give, Other strive For that glory and power provide. And all men try To find purpose and meaning in life. What they find there, rests upon they decide.
Some men vie For the happines reaches belie, Spend their lives Finding treasure to berry or hide, But all men die And their reaches stay buried inspite, But there's one wish follows across to divide --
To be remembered Long after glory dies! You will live all the same Just as long as your name is alive. To be remembered -- That is the greatest prize. There is nothing that I would not do To be remembered...
And still are these Will tell you they live for another -- The family, the friends, or a lover, Or a vision that's still in their dreams, But realize: it seams. They will bleed you, They will hurt you, desert you, deceive you! You will tell you so they'll never leave you, But they'll go! They'll all go! And they're gone, But legends -- legends live on!
And some men claim They don't seek money, power or fame, Spend their days Finding pleasure in godfearing ways, But those men lie They're crusading for honour as side, Their desire Isn't much different than mine:
To be remembered Long after goodness dies! I will live on in glory As long as a story 's alive! To be remembered -- That is the greatest prize! There is nothing that I would not try That my name will live on though I die.
I will live out of bloodshed Completely disturbing Even centuries after I'm gone! They will tell you the legend, The truth and the lie, So, yes, Blackbeard will surely live on...
To be remembered Long after Edward dies! I will live on in glory As long as a story 's alive! To be remembered -- That is the greatest prize! There is nothing can stop me --so try! -- That my name will live on though I die!
You can't help by your treasure, Your purse or your pleasure To say: I'm remembered even I die!
