Heroes
  Those whose hair covers their eyes
  Those who decorate their bodies
  with ink from a needle or rings pierced into their skin
  Those whose hair is the color of the rainbow
  Those who are the rainbow
  They don’t judge you as you anticipate,
  but you judge them as they mind their business
  You judge them by their music or their favorite color
  Not as who they are but by the color of their fingernails
  Or what gender wears the makeup, or how much they apply
  and where it is applied
  But little do you know the music you call “crap” and “stupid”
  is the music that helped them
  Those “idiots” that scream into the microphone are their heroes
  And the way you judge is the reason why we need these heroes
