No One Rests In Peace
Everybody says RIP like parrots

Verse 1
They say rest in peace like it’s a plan
Like you’re sippin’ margaritas in the sand
But if there’s heaven, hell, or somethin’ in between
You ain’t sleepin’ through eternity
Grandma’s hauntin’ the house, Grandpa’s watchin’ the gate
Everybody’s busy, nobody’s late
You don’t get a pillow, you don’t get a lease
Ain’t nobody ever really rest in peace
Pre-Chorus
Soon as that heart quits keepin’ time
You’re clocked in somewhere else full-time
Chorus
No one rests in peace, that’s just what we say
To make ourselves feel better on a bad goodbye day
‘Cause if you’re doin’ any of them things
They promised when you die
You ain’t restin’, you’re workin’ overtime
So live it loud, live it fast, live it deep
No one rests in peace
Verse 2
They put wings on trouble, halos on regret
Say you’ll get your answers, you ain’t got yet
But I’ve known enough ghosts in my time
To know sleep ain’t part of the afterlife
If there’s judgment comin’, you’re on the stand
If there’s streets of gold, you’re shakin’ hands
If there’s fire below, you’re wide awake
Either way, that dirt ain’t a break
Pre-Chorus
Soon as the lights go out for good
You’re busier than you ever were
Chorus
No one rests in peace, that’s just a line
We carve in stone so we don’t lose our minds
‘Cause if you’re doin’ any of them things
They promised when you die
You ain’t restin’, you’re workin’ overtime
So drink it strong, love it reckless, don’t be cheap
No one rests in peace
Bridge
Six feet down don’t mean silence
It just means you changed assignments
So don’t save nothin’ for later
Later’s a liar and time’s a traitor
Last Chorus (lift)
No one rests in peace, so don’t wait around
On someday plans and sacred ground
If breath’s still in you, that’s the sign
You’re still on the clock, this time is mine
Laugh too hard, break too deep
Burn it all while you’re still you and me
Yeah, write this on your life’s release:
No one rests in peace
Tag (spoken or sung)
Rest when I’m dead?
Man… that’s when the real work starts.

I might die before you , No you won't your 37 years younger then me , And I'm going to haunt you when I'm dead

A bit disconcerting to have commercial success I think, which doesn't mean you shouldn't write it or it doesn't have value. Certainly makes you think!
