I really like this song, especially the Live; I wanna live inspired. Die; I wanna die for something lines and their variations. I think this song is about someone nearing the end of this life (All I know spins out of control. Wonder what's next for heart and soul. Nothing I have can save me now. Here in what maybe my final hour.)

They are facing the unknown with a bit of fear and anticipation. Part of this song is about regretting time spend on mistakes and foolish things, while the other part is very hopefully and talks about making the most of the time we have left and living like Christ.

I also love this line "Racing towards the heavens" 1 Cor. 9:24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.
