Gone Too Soon (R.I.P. Akira Toriyama)

Writing this song for you is the greatest honor
We were just simple kids but Goku make us stronger
Dragon Ball taught so many values as a child
But the hero of our childhood flew too soon into the sky

I would love to collect the seven balls and ask the dragon
To bring you back to life, it is not yet time for heaven
I swear you'll stay forever as a part in our hearts
You've become a legend, and now you shine as the biggest star

The news of your passing brings the whole world to tears
As the legendary Super Saiyan light appears
Thank you Toriyama for the beautiful time
I hope to share your story one day with the children of mine

The greatness of your mind, for what you have left behind
You deserve the best when you have arrived in paradise
An honored place reserved, the gates are open wide
Enma Dayo waits for your arrival at the portal side

Rise up to the stars that shine so bright
You raised us, so we can win the fight
You made this world a better place
Thanks to your story of the Dragon Balls

And now I'm older but with all your kindness
Staying a kid inside our hearts is timeless
You've been forever in our hearts
Even when I was a little boy

I love to remember back to where I was a child (yeah)
We sang every opening and played Budokai
Super Saiyan 3, I get goosebumps from the scream
Super Kamehameha, life was but a dream

Without you Sensei, childhood wouldn't be the same
I watched every single episode and played every game
Bring a smile to all children with your magical art
Toyotaro does his best
Missing you in his heart

I would give anything to live the journey once more (yeah)
Embrace your stories and your values from the day I was born
Your impact on the scene has changed so many lives
Many stories would never exist without your advice

The halo above the Sensei of this legacy
Together one last time, we gather energy
Raising our hands for the Genkidama endgame
Rest in peace, Toriyama Sensei

Rise up to the stars that shine so bright
You raised us, so we can win the fight
You made this world a better place
Thanks to your story of the Dragon Balls
Now I'm older but with all your kindness
Staying a kid inside our hearts is timeless
You've been forever in our hearts
Even when I was a little boy

Rise up to the stars that shine so bright
You raised us, so we can win the fight
You made this world a better place
Thanks to your story of the Dragon Balls

Gone too soon
