Heroes Are Not Born Anymore

Heroes Are Not Born Anymore

You were a hero

Fighting for your country

Hopefully you made it home

And married the girl you loved

A house with a white fence

You had two children

Your dream was complete

Now your children are grown

They wear black masks

Attacking people and America

Searching for anyone to like them

Or a safe place to hide

When someone calls them a name

Or even disagrees with them

God forbid that America need your courage

It cannot be found in the new generation

They are way too busy crying in a corner

I guess you’ll have to fight for them

At least until the grow a pair
