When the time comes I pray the Lord gives me the Guts....

                               To Be A Hero!

Cuz I dont want to be remembered...
I just don't want to be forgotten
And with no guts
I have no glory
No author to my story,

I just want to know i saved a life
just like he saved mine
because I wanna be like him so much
That I want to make that sacrifice
                                    For love...
people call me "crazy"
                                cuz I said "I'd jump..."
jump in front of a hundred bullets
                               in front of a speeding train,
                                                             out of a plane....
if I knew it meant someone else could live
My woman says I'm selfish
                              cuz what about her...
and I reply, "what if it was her..."

My soul wants to save you all
but my body can only shield one...
My mind thinks of ways...
hoping my words can do it all...
shield,
          save,
                  and change
Each thought, each syllable..
that flows deep within my veins
I hope they come out ****** and such,

                                         Covered in a whole lot of Guts...

Lord give me the guts to be Hero...
            Because I know...
Only You can save the world!!!
