forget burial Lyrics

Hold me

Better yet please fight for me

My body's tired and weak

The weight is crushing

Lift me up to breathe

Hear me

I hate hollow sympathy

So tell me honestly

Would you still love me in 1983?

If heaven is waiting on me

No need to bury the body

Forget burial and promise me

No one else will die a death like me

Believe me

I carry valiant legacy

Their names like blood running through me

I hold their bravery

It won't go out on me

I believe in all their dreams

But don't paint it rainbow

It started in the streets

If heaven is waiting on me

No need to bury the body

Forget burial and promise me

No one else will die a death like me

I won't forget

The ones who dreamed for me

Rest in power and rest in peace

Your strength goes forward in me

My name is Duane Kearns Puryear

I was born on December 20, 1964

I was diagnosed with AIDS on September 7, 1989 at 4:45 pm

I was 22 years old

Sometimes it makes me very sad.

I made this panel myself

If you are reading it

I'm dead
