In a world of sapphire suns and marble moons Covered completely in hourly monsoons – There lays a creature so filled with life Yet all alone and lacking a wife.
He's always been known by a name so rare That those who speak it would receive a glare. He's really no different than you or I, But it's what he's done for what he's known by.
On this planet of sapphire suns, There once was a tyranny that was led by guns. They demanded food and they demanded water; Obtaining it all by a ruthless slaughter.
The creatures did what they could to hide Hoping in time it would all subside. When reality spread that there wasn't an end, One arose on who all could depend.
Day and night, he fought for their rights Defending and grinning he saved their lives. He rallied the masses with his words and actions To conjure up riots and other abstractions.
They never thought they'd see the day; But their much needed revolution was now on the way. With the tyrannous tyrants finally distracted, The creature was ready when he acted.
It all took lives, and it all took time, But in the end, it ended the crime. With the tyrants down, there stood a savior The one who promoted the disorderly behavior.
Statues were raised and monuments erected But what happened next would not be expected. A tyrant remained with revenge in his heart Who swore he would tear this creature apart.
He devised a machine so evil and mean, To wipe out all minds and make them clean. In his plan, he excluded only one, The creatures' pride; their beloved son.
This wasn't enough -- the tyrant wanted more; He wanted their hero to be knocked to the floor. He programmed their minds to despise and detest The one who relived them from being oppressed.
The tyrant deemed him an unspeakable curse, And any that spoke of him would be proclaimed as worse. At first our savior was deeply astonished, But not soon after, he reacted with a promise.
"In this never-ending war that I'm determined to win I'll suffer through pain but escape with a grin. You've won the battle but I'll win the war I've won before, and I'll win once more."
