The Ones Who Got The Praise
If I were a hero
I’d probably be just another zero.
All these heroes have connections, one kid is an ieroe
To an old, famous pro.
All these “warriors”
Are just storiers
That tell stories that are much gorier
Than what the young should know.
Maybe, I only think this because I
Am a villain and I will never try
To become a better person, a person who felt empathy and could cry.
I am friends with the lone crow.
Everyone knows the story of the brave
Person who got hurt to gain the praise.
Then, HE ASKED FOR A RAISE!
All I know is that the heroes see me as a foe.
