SUPERHEROES
(The Script)
All the life
she has seen
All the meaner side of me
They took away the prophet's dream
For a profit on the street
All the meaner side of me
They took away the prophet's dream
For a profit on the street
Now she’s
stronger than you know
A heart of steel starts to grow
A heart of steel starts to grow
All his life
he's been told
He’ll be nothing when he’s old
All the kicks and all the blows
He won't ever let it show
He’ll be nothing when he’s old
All the kicks and all the blows
He won't ever let it show
'Cause he's
stronger than you know
A heart of steel starts to grow
A heart of steel starts to grow
When you've
been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
You've been struggling to make things right
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
When you've
fighting for it all your life
You've been working every day and night
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
You've been working every day and night
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
Oh-oh, oh,
oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh
All the
hurt, all the lies
All the tears that they cry
When the moment is just right
You see fire in their eyes
All the tears that they cry
When the moment is just right
You see fire in their eyes
'Cause he’s
stronger than you know
A heart of steel starts to grow
A heart of steel starts to grow
When you've
been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
You've been struggling to make things right
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
When you've
fighting for it all your life
You've been working every day and night
That’s how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power (power, power, power, power, power)
You've been working every day and night

Every day, every
hour turn the pain into power
She's got
lions in her heart
A fire in her soul he's a got a beast
In his belly that's so hard to control
'Cause they've taken too much hits, taking blow by blow
Now light a match, stand back, watch them explode
A fire in her soul he's a got a beast
In his belly that's so hard to control
'Cause they've taken too much hits, taking blow by blow
Now light a match, stand back, watch them explode
She's got

A fire in her soul he's a got a beast
In his belly that's so hard to control

HISTORY
The lyrics made me touched and could invite tears. Especially if this song
has a meaning of motivation to live so we stay and the spirit of life. The
message of this song: Despite the poor quality of life and the challenges to
living in such slums, people managed to thrive and move forward in their own
way, and built a happy family. The video clip of this song has been very explaining the meaning of this song. The point is we have to struggle to live life no matter what the circumstances. Do not ever show your distress with others. Turn pain into strength!
