This was written as if from Michael's perspective on his death.
I thought I'd share with you all...as I really love it.
Listen here:

And here are the lyrics:
"SOUL SURVIVOR"
He thought he could take me, take me down
And walk over my ashes
He hid his weapon in the crowd, walkin' around
With a pair of matches
A secret to frame the match maker
Setup to blame the blood taker
He did all he could to make sure
When the pieces fell, they fell with ease
But he forgot one thing...
I'm a soul survivor
And a stronger fighter
You can't put out my fire
You think you threw me off track
But whatever you give you get back
And I'm gonna make sure of that
Somebody always wants a piece
Wants to be, better than the other
Driven by the powers of greed and jealousy
Children lost a father
You think can just break and take me?
Well you are sadly mistaking
And when the ground beneath you starts quaking
You'll find there's no escaping me
I'm afraid you've failed to see...
I'm a soul survivor
And a stronger fighter
You can't put out my fire
You think you threw me off track
But whatever you give you get back
And I'm gonna make sure of that
He thought he could take me, take me down
And walk over my ashes...

I wrote this, by the way...and that's me singing it.
Just to break down some of the beginning lyrics in case some people don't get it (though I think it's pretty obvious)... the part "he hid his weapon in the crowd, walkin around with a pair of matches" is insinuating the idea that there was someone, AEG or whoever else...that used Murray as a weapon in taking out Michael; "Hidden in the crowd" meaning they put him right in there... just part of the staff...a doctor, blending right in. And all the while Murray had his "pair of matches" (propofol) just waiting to strike.
Then "a secret to frame the match maker" is pointing to the idea that it was a framing, like maybe Murray didn't even know the whole story...he was just planted there...and so automatically people would put blame not just on him the "blood taker" but on the "match makers" as well; meaning the medicine itself. Hope that all makes sense.
Anyway, would love to hear your guys' thoughts. Thanks for listening!
JUSTICE FOR MICHAEL!
