To Kobe Bryant
Hero
There's a hero/
If you look inside your heart/
You don't have to be afraid? /
Of what you are/
There's an answer/
If you reach into your soul/
And the sorrow that you know/
Will melt away/
And then a hero comes along/
With the strength to carry on/
And you cast your fears aside/
And you know you can survive/
So when you feel like hope is gone/
Look inside you and be strong/
And you'll finally see the truth/
That a hero lies in you/
It's a long road/
When you face the world alone/
No one reaches out a hand/
For you to hold/
You can find love/
If you search within yourself/
And the emptiness you felt/
Will disappear/
Lord knows/
Dreams are hard to follow/
But don't let anyone/
Tear them away/
Hold on/
There will be tomorrow/
In time/
You'll find the way/
You are the hero forever.
——to the dauntless warrior
