I am searching for a real Hero
Not a virtual or an actual zero
I am searching for many Heroes
And I want to earn many zeros
After any number greater than one
I want to go beyond the Heaven
But I don’t want to get high
I want to go high, high, high
And get as much knowledge that I can
And I want to say that yes, I can
Yes, you can, and yes, yes, we can
We can be better, better and prouder
And yes, we can love each other.
I am looking for an actual Hero
Who’s alive and well
A Hero who does not go low
Like a turtle at the bottom of the well
I am searching for a real Hero
With great personality and impeccable character
This Hero can be a man or a woman, a singer
Or a rapper, a priest or a pastor, a janitor
Or a doctor, a poet, a leader or a reporter
Unfortunately, my past Heroes are dead
But, I won’t stop searching for a fighter
I want stop looking until my eyes turn red
Until my brain is engulfed in knowledge and fire
Help me find a Hero, help me find many Heroes
Let’s be better than yesterday, let’s offer a rose
And a branch of olive to each other. Let’s fight
For a better future, humanity has the right
To live like human beings, to be free from greed and tyranny
To enjoy life, to respect and love each other like a baby
With a mother and a father. Oh! Yes, we can be each other’s Heroes
Where we won’t worry so much about earning too many zeros
After a number greater than number one
I am searching for you, because you’re my heaven
My star , my true soulmate, my model and my haven.
