>Cause we're immortalised forever in the songs that we write.
No Cali, we do not become immortal if we simply create a work of art, we become immortal in the collective consciousness once our art is perceived by conscious, self aware agents. If a tree falls down in a forest and nobody is there to hear it, it does not make a sound. If I write a book, a poem, if I draw something, and then lock it in a drawer, never showing it to anyone, then I will not be immortalised, and nobody will remember me. I will only beat death if people remember me, if my art is seen by a lot of people. Furthermore, when I change the world for the better through my art, then I matter, then I deserve to be remembered. Hitler will be remembered, but not for the right reasons.
That is my analysis on this verse, what do you think anon?
