Virus that are taking lives
Being a Respondent takes responsibility in what they provide
Bringing help in hope right away
No days off being a getaway
This virus is no ordinary day
It’s about saving lives
But sometimes it is not quick enough
We are not making excuses and a bluff
As a Respondent, we take all our jobs serious
There can be stress but we don’t get furious
Sometimes tired and weary
At other times of patient death, we get teary
But it is a daily mission to pull through
We continue on
As a Healthcare, Policeman and Firemen professional knowing we are needed and belong
We keep our mind and body strong
It’s a mission that has lasted so long
But responsibility is whom we are about
Sustaining life is on the line
Because we could be patients ourselves
The Coronavirus doesn’t look for a name
But it’s the cure being the aim
We won’t stop until our job is complete
A sunrise with a hopeful tomorrow now wouldn’t that be neat
We are definitely overworked, but there is a job to do
Each day is a challenge we go through
We stay focused no matter what
Thank you with your heartfelt applause
But as a Respondent, it is about the cause
Coronavirus time frame to move out
It’s the vaccine I am talking about
It’s a matter of when
Moving outdoors when can
Then with continued hope, this Coronavirus can finally end.
