WesydeUnderground - April 3rd

You know I've written this song about 15 times
But it's hard to combine these emotions in a couple of lines
A couple of rhymes to ease my mind
But as time goes on I just gotta finish this song
Nowadays I hang at the end of my rope
Like I've given up hope, the thought of you makes me choke
Back on my tears, it's goin' on 15 years
Since I lost my peer and got lost in this fear
I remember that day, in the month before May
And I remember the look on Tim's face
I remember the way that we cried and the pain inside
When she told us that you had died
And this tat can't tell the hell you had to endure
But you'd be here if we were there and of that I'm sure
These words can't explain the hurt
But I remember April 3rd

April 3rd, I'll never forget
And those decisions we made, you know I'll always regret
But we were just kids out to have a good time
As we left you behind to try to make us a dime
As time goes by I remember your face
I wish we wouldn't have left and came back to that place
You should've been right there in the seat behind me
Smokin' weed & jammin' out, instead of us finding
Out you'd been scalped and stabbed
And at the wake your face was the picture of sad
And as the funeral ceased I wanted to punch the priest
They fuckin' played Mariah Carey for the deceased
But out at your grave, you know we kept it true
And played "Something I Can Never Have" for you
And as it started to rain I knew you felt our pain
And on April 3rd I keep on burnin' the flame

You know a lot has changed but it still stays true
I wish we would have been there to be there for you
There's so many miles between you and me
And the punk bitch who did it still walks free
I got a family now who I'll always protect
Because of some dumb fuck who slit your neck
I never had any brothers related by name
Except for you, Tim and Mike and that won't change
You're always in my brain, I barely speak your name
Because it makes me insane to think of all of the pain
That you had to go thru, we should've been there for you
I'mma take that to my grave and that's the best I can do
If they ever find out who had the nerve
To kill a sixteen year old kid I'd gladly serve
Ten death sentences to have my revenge
So I could kill the motherfucker who took my friend
Took my friend

Where did you go, why did you have to leave
This tragedy is hard for me to believe
One thing remains, and it stays true
I wish we would've been there to be there for you
Where did you go, why did you have to leave
This tragedy is hard for me to believe
One thing remains, and it stays true
I wish we would've been there to be there for you
