Rest in Power Kamehameha

After school on my TV screen you were there Giving me power from my bullies or scratching my hair. How can I forget how you looked, orange gi. Large biceps It is unforgettable, common as commonsense But oh, how painful must it have been to have your father gone How it must of felt to watch his spirit move on He was a slump, yet a genius, a father to 2 and a hero to the world He changed the game, the system unfurled He set standards, inspired the shows we watch One can say he was super at his job, definitely top-notched Inside our hearts he lit a spirit ball, One that would bounce in our bodies through night fall. We watched and lived in those fights, every foe defeated Until the robot and his fairy left our screens as we did. So I say unto the world, let it be known We can be united no matter sex, beliefs or skin tone Because he did it with his drawings one man and a pen alone So no matter if you watch it at 8pm on your TV or on your phone You have seen the work by a legend only few ever really known So yell it to the sky and have people gaze in awe Rest in power, Kamehameha
