Times like these are times to stand up

No matter who opposes you, do not give up

A boy I once knew, his name was Sam

Most of the time he didn’t really give a damn

But when it came to what he believed,

He never was relieved

He knew this world was corrupt

Little did he know, his life would be abrupt

He was threatened and beat,

But he would still compete

He thought what no one else did

He was only a kid

On a stormy night, the sky was bright

With the stars and the moon

The last thing he heard was a boom

Next time you’re in denial

Face all the trials

Just like Sam did

His enemies hid

Because he died for what he believed in
