Not quite. Read more closely.
Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way
that we cope with our lives...
How about the grim reaper?

It may have to do something with unlucky numbers.....
as 4 = 3+1 and 13 (unlucky number) = 3+1 = 4
I know I am wrong, its just a wild guess.....
is it perhaps unlucky?
Considering 4 is unlucky in the east, resembling death, and 13 being the general unlucky number in western society.
There is no darkness, there is no light, there is only Lasagne!
Oh I never heard that. Why does 4 represent death in the east?

It does not represent death, it just sounds similar when pronounced. (Four) sounds like death in Chinese, Japonese and I think Korean too.

Close, but no cigar as I'm looking for a name everyone would know if the word were translated. I mean, try this slant: I don't think a Russian has a name of something that its literal translation is "The Grim Reaper." However, they do have a name for something that literally translates as the name I have in mind. The name can be read, if you can follow the clues. I give my word that it is there!All about directions, people have the hardest time following them, you know?
Did another clue go by?

And if we are not mistaken, 13 is Deaths number in Tarot.
If you believe even a half of this post, you are severely mistaken.
And Aimus acidentially takes home the prize!
4 was the horse ridden by Death in the Book of Revelations.
13 is the number of Death in a Tarot deck. (Good catch, Tal!)
Death is known everywhere, and all languages have a name for death.
Some fear Death, some worship, say Kali, Goddess of Death.
As to the five lines, Jack the Ripper cut throats on a slant, left to right.
From the d on top going on a slant left to right you pick up e, a, t, and h. Thus:
Do not let shadows daunt and blind you—
Recall the path made by Jack the Ripper’s blade—
Reality leads on to its proper conclusion—
That past history records the dire deeds—
Which following said trail, you have found a name
Simple, really. You should go with that gut-feeling, Aimus!

It was another great riddle
There is no darkness, there is no light, there is only Lasagne!
Cheers, mate, for an excellent riddle.
Here's my shot at it:
X-Wing or TIE?
Neither, in fact.
This aerial warrior
Lands often on tracts.
The best way to get one,
As people once said?
Look for the line
Where answers can be read.
Kaisers and Fuhrers
Would loathe this pilot's bane
Less often in sky,
More often in plain.

Por una cabeza
Si ella me olvida
Qué importa perderme
Mil veces la vida
Para qué vivir

I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew.
I think it is TIE.
