O, Death
"O, Death" is an Appalachian folk song usually attributed to Baptist Preacher and folk musician Lloyd Chandler. Chandler was a travelling preacher, active around the south, who claimed to have written the song in 1916 after having a terrifying vision after a period of sinning. This vision was a conversation between a sinner and deathThe lyrics were written very early and sometimes the song is referred to as "A Conversation with Death" or simply "Lloyd's Song."
The lyrics of the song are similar to a "negro spiritual" recorded in 1908 as well as an older Irish song called "A Dialogue Between Death and a Sinner" from the late 1800s.
This song has been covered numerous times by famous artist, but this version is by Dock Boggs.

    In the gta verse, Alaska stays Russian. But have American settlers for the gold rushes and oil fields popping up. Also it would the tsars family as well as White Russian fleeing Russia from the red during the Russian civil war in which the Bolsheviks won Russia and forms the Soviet Union and the tsarist loyalists move to Alaska and form their remaining tsardom in Alaska. Tsardom of Russia would be its formal but the world calls it Alaska. A tsarist nation. Also other Russian colonies want to declare independence and those colonies don’t want to join the Soviet sphere of influence. As the colonies of Borealia. Tartaria, Bellinsgauzenia, New Devon, and Russian Ethiopia are independent republics which houses White Russians and tsarist loyalists hiding in there.
