This is to my all my heroes
And to help redefine what a hero is
Because we are standing on the shoulders of people
Who rose up and fought
Sacrificed their lives so we would be better off
I’m talking about ordinary heroes
Talking about ordinary people
Whose courage and bravery helped them through it all
No matter what came their way
I’m talking about men like Bobby Sands and James Connolly
Just ordinary heroes
Who held the spear of justice
We call can wield it just as gallantly
Use it not to build up walls, but to bring them down
And unite the people for peace and justice
Fighting like Michael Collins or Francis Hughes
They set a fire so bright
That it still brings people together
Gives us hope
Fires made by ordinary men and woman
Woman like Sister Sarah Clarke and Constance Markiewicz
Mass change doesn’t come about by luck
It comes from people stressing but never giving up
It comes from people who put in a lot of time and commitment
To help the people rise in unison
Just ordinary heroes like Michael Quigley and Wolfe Tone
We are standing on the shoulders of people
Who put a lot of hard work in
Who passed down their trials and errors
Fighting for future generations
The stories we tell bring us together
The stories of ordinary heroes
People like you and me
