Please read the second link…
If you lost or forgot your firmware password - Apple Support
…
You can set a firmware password on these Mac computers.
- MacBook Air (Late 2010 and later)
- MacBook Pro (Early 2011 and later)
- MacBook Pro with Retina display (all models)
- iMac (Mid 2011 and later)
- Mac mini (Mid 2011 and later)
- Mac Pro (Late 2013)
- MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2015)
Only Apple Retail Stores or Apple Authorized Service Providers can unlock computers protected by a firmware password.
The purpose of an EFI password is to stop you installing or editing the Mac via any startup commands.
Sorry I can't do anything but point you towards Apple.
