If we consider dying as achieving a higher level of clarity, perspective and consciousness, I agree with many of you, although I don't consider it to be linked exclusively to death: when death creeps upon us we understand what really matters in life, forget about all the trivial issues we've worried way too much about during our lifetime, focus on the things that are truly important and put things into perspective.

"Anyone that needs what they want,
and doesn't want what they need,
I want nothing to do with. (to do with)
"Anyone that needs what they want,
and doesn't want what they need,
I want nothing to do with. (to do with)
And to do what I want
and to...
And to do what I want
and to do what I please,
is first on my to-do list."
This doesn't necessarily mean he's going to die: I believe it to be more of a hymn urging us to do that NOW, and not wait until we're about to die. Focus on what matters now, and lead a much fuller and happier existence, free from the ridiculous issues we tend to be consumed with. It sounds like he's speaking from the experience of knowing what's truly important (regardless of whether he's dying, has had a near-death experience or similar...), and believes this can be achieved if one puts his mind to it.
"I've seen it with my own eyes,
how we're getting otherwise,
without the luxury of leaving."
The touch and feeling of free,
is untangible technically,
is something you got to believe in."
This song isn't just about dying it's about the afterlife and trying to see what really awaits us after life here on earth.
"baby I've got to go, baby I've got to know, baby I've got to prove it."
