The leader will stand
For all into one
The sum of his fears
Is a product of none
He has learned to fight fair
On this life battlefield
With a sword of ideals
And a virtuous shield
He will rise over mountains
Cross river and stream
As he carries the world
While upholding his team
He will sink to the depths
Of the loneliest ocean
A man-of-war captain
On seas of emotion
Beating back pain
Like a ram against waves
His sails painted black
By his treasure horde caves
Where desire was buried
And locked in a chest
When at the world's end
A most selfless behest
Then summoned him from
A Laurentian abyss
Reborn as a dreadnought
Of true nothingness
Imbued with the force
Of a righteous typhoon
Commanding the tide
With his purpose-full moon
To glow as a beacon
A lighthouse of hope
For the stars yet to see
Through his telescope
Beyond space and time
Past nuclear fusions
Celestial beings
And cosmic illusions
To find that within
Is the energy source
To channel this power
And rewrite its course
For the leader has done this
He's doing it now
Tasked with the honor
Of showing them how
