When I Pass

The Lord will call my name one day;

When this time comes this is what I’d like someone to say;

Christopher came from nothing and made a way;

Not just another man but a friend who lived to be who God made;

Not for another man’s attention but he was himself to give God all praise;

 

Who not just lived for himself but gave his life to make a change;

Who left not just a memory in his life time;

But left a legacy behind;

 

A man who could have given up but refused;

When life got too hard and his heart was torn and abused;

Instead of showing hate;

He showed love to those who hurt him every day;

 

A man who refused to give up come what may;

Who lived to change not just himself but those he met along the way;

A boy who made so many mistakes;

But chose to use those mistakes to educate;

 

Many hated him for his brutal honesty;

Many a girl fell for his charm and words so sweet;

A man so young who accomplished what most wish;

Yet those who really knew him, knew he was so full of *ish;

 

For the wisdom he gave when people asked;

For the youth he helped escape their past;

For the times he made us laugh;

And for the tears we cry today because he has passed;

 

For a brother, lover and friend;

His legacy will never end;

For his strange ways;

For his love of 2pac and Thierry Henry and all those strange things he used to say;

Let’s take a moment to remember not just a person, but an angel God let escape;

Rest in Peace Christopher Mark Lincoln aka Kribo, thanks for the life you lived so the world could change;

 

We can’t wait to join you in Heaven some day.
