Someday,
I, too, will put on the mask.
I, too, will wear the aura of mystery.

Someday,
I will bear a secret name,
And I will fight the Good Fight.

Someday,
I will be remembered
For the deeds I have done
Behind a mask and a secret name
In the name of the weak and the helpless.

Someday,
I, too, will join with others
To build together the cause.

Someday,
I will be a hero.

Someday,
I will be another's dream.

Thank you!
