Crystal Clear
They mock me and call me weak
My bones they say, they can tweak
They tell me I will easily die
Over my death, no one will cry
I’m just an average fool
Trying to do something cool
Going after glory and fame
Just to have a better name
I’m just a loser, lower than zero
I will never become a hero
Although, it is my only desire
One which I truly aspire
But I’m not that tough or strong
Fighting crime, a place I hardly belong
I know that it’s true
Sometimes it makes me blue
But they shall see
What I’m supposed to be
All I got to do is train
Work hard and fight the pain
For honor and justice, I will fight
Even if it drains all my might
To my dream, I’m getting near
I can see it now, crystal clear
