I’m not a man,at least not for now
Missiles fly and explode
At my simple thumbs up or thumbs down
Behind this suit is a heavy vest
Behind that is a beating heart
My predecessors warn me that they can
Never warn me of what’s to come from the start
I feel the weight folding my skin
For this job I’ve accepted adversaries
As dear friends
The problems I’m here to solve never end
I can’t call mother on that red phone
No matter how big the trouble
This job has shown me that
There is never enough room to roam
No matter how large the bubble
As I am now I know you cannot relate
Decisions I make affect
What’s on your plate
I’ve grown anxious for that last
Official play of ” Hail To The Chief”
In a few years I’ll be able
To properly absorb all this grief
