I am not the brilliant leader, I am the fearless dreamer.
I am not the one with all the facts, I complete all silent acts.
I am a shadows face, quite often out of place.
I am not a standout individual, in fact I'm quite invisible.
The shadow warrior, on a hidden battlefield.
My secrets, my stories, remain concealed.
I am not an overachiever, I am a firm believer.
I believe in loyalty, spirit and trust,
someone to fight for you, dawn til' dusk.
I am not a shining knight, riding off into glorious battle,
I am but a lowly soldier, fighting a raging war.
A war against your demons, the ones you fight inside,
a war against your fears, the ones that make you hide.
And still, my fight remains unseen, there is no one to witness.
And this is because,
I am the shadow warrior, the soldier who remains unseen.
And while you openly worship your heroes,
your heroes silently worship me.
