Field Marshal
Elder Lister
For the longest time, I have been wanting to dedicate this song to a very special guy.
A gentleman of true character, intellect and modesty. A patriot, a pillar of his community, my brother in arms.
Mwalimu Gashwin, so far have we come and so far will we go. Though we walk slower now and the juices of youth are all but gone, may we never walk backwards, and may the gods grant us more days before the sunset that will see us seat at the fireside of our people.
Thaaai!
The Older I Get
Alan Jackson
The older I get
The more I think
You only get a minute, better live while you're in it
'Cause it's gone in a blink
And the older I get
The truer it is
It's the people you love, not the money and stuff
That makes you rich
And if they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet
The older I get
The fewer friends I have
But you don't need a lot when the ones that you got
Have always got your back
And the older I get
The better I am
At knowing when to give
And when to just not give a damn
And if they found a fountain of youth
I wouldn't drink a drop and that's the truth
Funny how it feels I'm just getting to my best years yet
The older I…
And I don't mind all the lines
From all the times I've laughed and cried
Souvenirs and little signs of the life I've lived
The older I get
The longer I pray
I don't know why, I guess that I
Got more to say
And the older I get
The more thankful I feel
For the life I've had, and all the life I'm living still
