Walking into a room filled with fire
Throwing caution to wind making sure everyone is safe
Not knowing if he’ll ever get back to his home
Regardless he jumps in and is always ready to help
No matter the situation
He’s a great man indeed
The type of person we need
So much flames that it lights up the sky
Blue skies turning red
No more oxygen, inhaling smoke instead
He loved helping and he loves to give his all
He would jump inside the building even tho he knew it was surely meant to fall
He was there whenever he got the call
He was scared at times but he never showed, he made sure he stood tall
The people around looked up to him and the man that he was
He didn’t do it for the recognition he did it because it was just who he was
And he did it to help and there was no because
He did what he did, not cause he had to
He did it because he wanted to
He knew the struggle of his life and he wanted to make a difference
He doesn’t think about himself when he’s saving other people
He risks his life for other people
saving them is most important
Nothing means more to him than to save a life
To Save a wife, a husband and kids just in time
He’s a hero
He’s not a fictional character
He’s a hero
Courageous and powerful and boundless care for people
Black, Asian, white, Hispanic
He doesn’t see a race, he sees them all as people
A great individual who never asked for much
No matter what was going on you could always count on him.
His name was John
We called him Johnny
He wasn’t always serious, he was actually incredibly funny
John was a man of the people and the people loved him dearly
