Is there a font that displays a letter on a keyboard. I have a problem
explaining it, but I need a font that looks like I took of a key on a
keyboard and pasted it to a document.

There are fonts with names like Keyboard, Keycap(s), etc., that will do what
you want. Try searching with Google to turn up pages such as
