Some lyrics I wrote about death and whatnot. Please review.

Legacy

(Verse 1)
Death is not a option,
It's the price we pay to live.
Hopefully by the time I'm gone,
I'll give this life all I have to give.

I hope that I live on,
I hope that they remember me.
I often wonder to myself,
What will be my legacy?

(Chorus)
What will be written on my stone,
When I'm under six feet of dirt?
Will I be remembered for the things I created,
Or for the people that I hurt?
Will people forgive me for my sins,
Or will they just forget me?
When I leave this world,
What will be my legacy?

(Verse 2)
Will my brothers carry me on,
Will I have children to mourn?
Will I have the one of my life,
Who all my love I've sworn?

Will I watch my own wake,
As a ghost in the balcony.
Will I be able to witness,
My own legacy.

(Chorus)
What will be written on my stone,
When I'm under six feet of dirt?
Will I be remembered for the things I created,
Or for the people that I hurt?
Will people forgive me for my sins,
Or will they just forget me?
When I leave this world,
What will be my legacy?

(Bridges)
All the bridges burned,
All the lessons learned,
All the tears that I've cried.
All the love I've shared,
With the ones that cared,
Will that be remembered once I've died?

(Chorus)
What will be written on my stone,
When I'm under six feet of dirt?
Will I be remembered for the things I created,
Or for the people that I hurt?
Will people forgive me for my sins,
Or will they just forget me?
When I leave this world,
What will be my legacy?
