By Farida Saidu Yusuf
I Want to be the hero
tired of being a zero
being a sidekick
No one notices me until I put on lipstick
What a shame!
And you are to blame
Cause you don’t even know my name
You see me every day
when I try to go
Stay, you tell me
and don’t give me
a chance to say no
No, I am tired of going unnoticed
I am now being my boldest
No more being the nicest
Cause you all are using me
and the hero I want to be.
