No Superhero

I can't save you

I can’t run through walls

I ain’t got sharp claws

I can’t rewind time

I can’t read your mind

I ain’t got no shield

I ain’t got no watch

And I can’t move

At the speed of light

And I can’t prove

That a man can fly

Got no x-ray vision

Made some bad decisions

I ain’t got no suit

And I can’t transform

Can’t control a storm

And my blood ain’t immune

skin ain’t bullet proof

Got no "S" on my chest

And I don’t run that fast

I’m not invisible

I’m not invincible

I got no villains to

Defeat and remove

But I do know who can save.
