My superhero doesn't wear a cape
Doesn't lift cars
Doesn't leave without a scrape
Doesn't bend bars

My superhero isn't a single person
But a large amount of people
Isn't one guy who's secretly a businessperson
Or a group of secret businesspeople

My superheros are the soldiers
The ones who save, who protect
The ones who face unseen dangers
Who deserve immense respect

Mine are the men and woman who give everything
The people who leave their lives without a second thought
The people who will give anything
Even when caught
