What is a hero?

What is a hero, you've wanted to know

Is it someone who is needed wherever they go?

Do they have super powers and fly in the sky?

Are they the kind of people who will never die?

But the answer is simple, and I swear this is true

A hero is someone like me or like you

The smallest action can mean so much

Just think of the lives you could possibly touch

Like helping someone to cross the street

Is a small, but meaningful, heroic feat

Just smiling at someone could brighten their day

A hero is made in the simplest way

So someone might call you a hero someday

Just know that you've helped them in some sort of way
