[Verse 1]
Here’s the tale of a young man trying to make it out alive,
To my old life I say goodbye, to the new one it’s ride or die.
Walking roads beneath the trees, learning lessons day by day,
Taking every scar and setback, finding strength along the way.
Some say a soldier’s gone forever when they lay him down to rest,
But no matter how much time goes by, you’re still loved and missed.
To the ones who lost a brother and couldn’t handle all the pain,
I fight it every morning when I wake up once again.
Take a breath and make a plan, keep moving down the road,
The hurt may never leave us, but together we carry the load.
[Chorus]
You’re still loved and missed,
Every mile, every memory.
Still loved and missed,
You’re a part of who I’ll always be.
Though heaven called your name away,
Your story never fades.
Through every struggle that we face,
Your light still leads the way.
You’re still loved and missed,
Brother, you’re still loved and missed.
[Rap Verse]
Looks can be deceiving, check Bonnie and Clyde,
Some wear a smile while hiding demons inside.
Life taught hard lessons, trust ain’t always what it seems,
But every hard fall became fuel for bigger dreams.
Different lives, same struggle, that’s the truth you always knew,
Without the fight and hardship we don’t become who we’re meant to.
Every scar became a lesson, every loss became a sign,
That strength is getting back up one more time.
Started with a goal and a dream and a prayer,
Didn’t always know the way but kept moving somewhere.
When the world pushed back, you refused to break,
Built your life from the chances you were willing to take.
[Bridge]
Without struggle there’s no victory,
Without darkness no sunrise.
It’s our willingness to battle through
That defines our lives.
[Final Chorus]
You’re still loved and missed,
Every backroad, every song.
Still loved and missed,
And your spirit carries on.
The years may pass, the seasons change,
But your memory remains.
In every laugh, in every tear,
I still hear your name.
You’re still loved and missed,
Brother, until we meet again.
[Outro Spoken]
“We all lived different lives, but we all lived the same struggle.”
“And it’s our willingness to battle through it that defines us.”
“Love you, brother.”
