He Dmbattles his shadows and Amdemons
FFighting to Elight the Amway 
And the Amdust and the dirt cloud his Emvision
COnward he rides unaGfraid
He Dmfights the good fight for good Amreason
A Fstar that reEfuses to Amfade

CHis clothes are shabby and Gbare 
Still he Dmglows like the light from a Amcandle 
With Fpassion of Eone who still Amcares 
There was Amalways a rhyme to the Emreason 
CPeering out from tired Geyes 
The Dmtruth finally came in Amtreason 
FSo wrong, but Eso justiAmfied… 
FSo wrong, but Eso justiAmfied… 
FWindmills close Etheir eyes… Am
