Wake up look around to see that you aren't there/
Made an exit, walked up heavens stairs/
We were like brothers, two kids in the park/
Shoulda told me, never keep your feelings in the dark/
That fateful day i guess it was too much to take/
That horrible way, you just needed a break/
I perceived you as the strongest man in the world/
I regret the day you left me and your baby girl/
The nights spent cryin', the dreams of what occured that night/
Picture you dyin', wish you coulda put up one more fight/
But greed, hate, deceit, handed you defeat/
Without you here, life seems incomplete/
People are deceivin' you were a pure soul/
To be like you used to be my life goal/
But since you took those pills, Sittin' up there in heavens hills/
Victim to the quest for dollar bills, Couldnt even afford a square meal/
You were a soldier, the greatest i could ever witness/
It's sad but people treat death like just another business/
To read your letters, it sends chills down my spine/
Wishin' i could hear your voice one more time/
I woulda given anything to revive you in and instant/
Your death was a lesson, In life you must stay persistant/
Deep down i know that you had the will, power and the strength/
Its so sad to see that you could cut your life to such a short length/
Wish i was there to stop you, to comfort and console/
But on the highway to heaven you paid your toll/
Its a one way street, and i'll be there one day soon/
Wish you were here to see your baby girl bloom/
I know we'll fight on, keep your memory preserved/
Get us a table at heaven and keep it reserved/
I promise i'll finish what you started while you were here/
I promise i'll take care of your kids, i'll never disappear/
This is dedicated to your memory, a departing gift/
On the highway to heaven you should have offered me a lift/
I'll never forget the things you did to guide/
I used to feel ashamed because my dad committed suicide/
Today i look at your picture and feel nothing but pride/
