LEGENDS

THE LEGEND

 

HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO

HUNDREDS OF LEGENDS WE KNOW

PEOPLE WITH SMALL INTEREST

PEOPLE WITH SMALL DREAMS

 

MANY, MANY YEARS AGO

MEN WOULD LAY A JACKET TO THE GROUND

JUST TO LET A LADY CROSS THE STREET

AND NOT GET HER PRETTY FEET WET

SO THE TOWNS PEOPLE WOULD NOTICE

AND HAVE THEIR OWN LEGEND

 

TIME HAS CONSUMED MOST LEGENDS

WHICH SEEM VERY HARD TO FIND

SOME LEGENDS TODAY ARE THOSE

WITH MILLIONS OF DOLLARS

YET NOT THE TYPE OF LEGEND IN OUR MINDS

 

WHERE ARE THE LEGENDS WE NEED

THE ONES WITH NO SENSE OF GREED

HISTORY HAS CREATED AN EXTREME POWER

A POWER BEYOND OUR CONTROL

A POWER FOR A LEGEND

NOT A PERSON WITHOUT ANY SOUL

 

SOMEONE LIKE YOU OR I

SOMEONE WHO’LL STOP THE CRYING

TODAY I REALIZE ONLY ONE LEGEND

SOMEONE WHO REALY CARES

THIS IS NOT A MYTH

BUT, FROM WORDS HE BARES

HE IS JEHOVAH

HE, WHO NEVER TELLS ANY LIE’S

THE LEGEND
