A great deed, a courageous feat
An image we have of a hero
Every day struggles, with countless defeat
Publicity is pretty much zero
Fight for the oppressed, die for the cause
A choice, not many will make
Does not get air time, not worth a dime
Does not get a double take
The invisible, the defenders
Of rights, yours and mine
Put their lives on the line
When no one else gives a damn
These heroes also fall to the ground
What would it take for us to see?
True heroes we meet everyday
Call them radicals, the activists
Thanklessly, trying to find a way
To right the wrong
Help the weak to be strong
They challenge the order of the day
For this they pay, their lives at stake
Fight the power
And hope they don’t break
The invisible, the defenders
Of rights, yours and mine
Put their lives on the line
When no one else gives a damn
These heroes follow to the ground
The invisible, the defenders
Who fights for them when they fall
Put their lives on the line
When tyrant fist cracks down
Don’t let heroes fall to the ground
The invisible, the defenders
Don’t let true heroes fall to the ground
