• Need I not,
    a memorial made of stone.
    Of marble, glass,
    or gold.

    Need I not,
    books written about me.
    Of my great deeds,
    or heroic antics.

    Need I not,
    to be known by man.
    For working any job,
    any job at all.

    Need I not,
    to be known.
    For my intelligence,
    nor my politics.

    Need I not,
    any of these things.
    Want I not,
    especially.

    Need I,
    to be known for living life.
    Just living it,
    having fun.

    Need I not,
    my name to be passed for generations.
    Legends told to their children,
    and then those children's children.

    Need I not,
    My name to even be thought of.
    Need I not,
    my name to be remembered.

    I was just another human,
    another soul on this earth.
    A soul saved by God,
    by his one and only son.

    Need I,
    to be remembered as a christain.
    A living sanctuary,
    for our savior.

    Want I,
    to be known for my love for others.
    The love I received from God,
    and shared to all I met.

    Need I,
    this thing.
    Want and Need, for me,
    they are the same.

    I want what I need,
    and I need what I want.
    My legacy,
    "I am a christain"
