Look there on that hill At that warrior who stands after many a kill He fought for his wife, king country and life Only to return home to betrayed with a knife
His government did ignore his heroic deeds And blamed the warrior for all the death, though for their mission he did succeed Because the people were filled with animosity For the war to defend them they called an atrocity Not realizing their disgustful ignorance As that warrior slew to defend them while in their citadel they partied and danced
When that warrior returned to his household He found his wife with a man so bold She said she wanted to divorce And drove away in his porsche
Insult to injury Social worker and security Deemed that warrior unfit to be a father After his cheating wife's partner did he bother She cried and said he was dangerous and rabid So along with his pride the ex wife took the kids
they mocked him they spat on his face Cursing his name by night they didn't realize he was their saving grace Alone and abandoned while still his fresh battle scars had not healed No doctor of statue would risk their reputation to have those wounds sealed
This is why all heroes are dead We have abandoned all value of honor and took up ignorance instead This is why all nice people finish last We hold them and cut their legs making sure this prophesy will pass
So for the next hero you know shed blood and bone Do not remember them with concrete and stone But remember their valor their great heroics So our children may know that the world does not belong to stoics And that ignorance shall pass away And that history will be the best gift some-day
