TRUE HEROES NEVER DIE
Their bloods might be sprinkled to taint the ground
Their flesh might be destroyed to go beyond the ground
In the heart of the evil, they might be bad
Every tongue might have dealt with them so very bad
Their eyes might have seen the worst things ever
They might have gnash their teeths in suffering
Their heart might have gone through thorns and shivers
They might have sitted all alone in cold nights striving
They might have even been hated by those they chose to liberate
They might have been pressured to leave their comfort zones
Their soul might have gone through the thorns of death
They might have tasted the bitterness of life all alone
True Heroes never die
As they have written their names in gold plates
Hanging them in every door of so many hearts
Leaving every mind waking up with them in mind
True Heroes are Immortal
At heart, they live forever
Even in death, they're stronger
They are like gold, they shine brighter even in the face of death
They're cain's blood that ever cried to the heaven
They're Mandela that ever fought for the people's freedom
They're Kofi Anan that Championed the peace of our land
True Heroes are those that never ran away Like a coward even when the battle get hot.
True Heroes never dies
They only transit to a legend
