Modern Day Hero - Kobra And The Lotus

My mother always told me when I’d look up to the sky

I would see the ancient heroes written in the stars at night

Oh the older I did grow and deeper meanings I did find

These heroes walked beside me, everyday a sacrifice

To give in a time of desperation

To fight for the future of mankind

Oh no it’s not easy

But I’ll try to see beyond myself

Oh why is it such a challenge?

Oh I’ll try, yes I’ll try to do this world right

Cause I wanna be a modern day hero

Oh I have always wondered how somebody got so brave

How they’d suffer for another, they would do whatever it takes

Oh they’ve seen their share of hell

And their life’s the price they pay

They’d do it all over again for their reasons never change

To give when you’re stronger than another

To fight when you realize you can

Oh no it’s not easy

But I’ll try to see beyond myself

Oh why is it such a challenge?

Oh I’ll try, yes I’ll try to do this world right

Cause I wanna, I wanna be

A modern day hero

Oh no it’s not easy

But I’ll try to see beyond myself

Oh why is it such a challenge?

Oh I’ll try, yes I’ll try to do this world right

I wanna be a modern day hero

Oh a modern day hero

Oh a modern day hero!
