Ak89

You were born in 89, full of fight and fire

Raised by a queen who never let your flame expire

No father to guide you, but you found your own crown

Our very own prince with a laugh loud enough, it could shake the ground

As tall as the sky, with a sly crooked smile

Singing songs and cracking jokes that ran for miles

You were a walking contradiction

Both stubborn and kind

A beautiful mess with such a brilliant mind

Broken? Yea sure, but damn did you shine

Turned pain into laughter every single time

The world seems so much colder now that you’re not near

But we still hear your voice as if you were here

You were chaos and comfort all in one tune

Why’d god have to call you home so soon

We’d lose track of the hours, all those drinks and late night songs

You’d play your heart out as if nothing in the world was wrong

But behind those chords, behind every line

You searched for peace that you were never able to find

You made us all feel seen somehow

Though you couldn’t even love yourself out loud

Broken? Yeah sure, but you made us all whole

Lit up the darkness like a midnight soul

A rebel with loyalty carved in stone

Even in silence, you never left us alone

And when we close our eyes, we’ll swear it’s true

We’ll see our prince, we all loved and knew

You always acted like life was a game

Rolling dice, chasing dreams, out running with no shame

Broken? Yeah sure, but you made us all whole

Lit up the darkness like a midnight soul

So hears to the songs you never got to play

And the battles we’ll fight, to always defend your name
