R.I.P.

[Verse 1]
Its 12:00 AM, it’s already a new year
Fireworks light up and everyone cheers
Dear Kyle, it’s April 5th, 2013
By now you would’ve been seventeen
Man, I lost you way too soon
True Spartan, your spirit is painted in maroon
I remember that day 5th period Petersen
Who knew that it was gonna be the day before the end?
Yeah, only known you for two years
But it seemed like we were always near
Playing grifball and bumper cars back in the day
Me, you, and Daniel pwning on live all day
And that random guy who kept betraying us
Man, all three us showed him what’s up
Talking on the bus and waiting by the stop
The things I wanted to say to you are now lost
Those were my happy memories
Reminiscing on those times makes my heart bleed
You were one of the only true friends I had
Hearing your death got me so mad and so sad
It made me realize just how precious time is
Cause I can never gain back the minutes I’ve wasted
I wish our time together could’ve been longer
I’m sure we would’ve gotten a bit closer
Man, I feel so sorry for Evan
Along with the rest of us we all lost a good friend
Hated those people who acted like they cared for you
Cause when you were still here they didn’t even care about you
It was a shame that they didn’t get to know you
You would brighten my day better than those fools
Evan and Cory made sure to carry on your legacy
The Kyle Keyes award displayed during the assembly
First time I heard about your heart disease
I thought it was just another guy with the same name
Uh, I wouldn’t have ever known
Cause your joy covers the heavy tone
Every time I look at your memorial bracelet
I see your name and the word Spartan engraved in it
A legend in history you will never be forgotten
Three-volley salute for our fighting Spartan
I admit there are times where I forget about ya
But even then I would never forget about ya
I know there ain’t no use dwelling in the past
But I won’t forget the ones in my life who have passed
Me and Daniel dropped off that get well card
I hope you read it and carried it in your heart
Was hoping to see you in your seat the next day
I never really thought that you would pass away
Never went to your house to hang out with you
Only time I’ve gone was the time you were gone
Why is it always the good who die young
While the bad die old man that’s just so dumb
I hope I existed in your memories
Why is this the way things turn out to be?
I wish we could play one more game online
I wish I could see your smile one more time
I’m so honored to have been your friend
I can’t understand why our time had to end
I dedicate this whole mixtape to you
I said I would, this is the least that I could do
God bless your whole family
Such a heavy loss for them I feel so sorry
If only you could’ve played Halo 4 and Reach
I’m sure you would’ve loved em just like 3
Your personality glowed like an angel
So bright that you even had a halo
Why do people only find importance through death
Cause by that time it’s nothing but regrets
Kids complaining about how they hate school
When you never even got the chance to start high school
There was so much that you didn’t get to do
There were so many good things in store for you
Yeah you would’ve gotten into a good college
Studying game designs or whatever you wanted
Then you would’ve found yourself a nice wife
Have a couple kids and enjoy a nice life
And there is so much more than that to
But you never got the chance to see it through
And all of us be saying how life sucks
When you didn’t even have a chance man that’s so rough
But your death wasn’t for nothing
It opened my eyes and gave me new meaning
I never got the chance to say goodbye
You may be gone but your presence will never die
I wish you could’ve read this long letter
Sincerely your companion and friend The Arbiter
I miss you so much, farewell Master Chief
Kyle Keyes my dear friend please rest in peace
