legend - nolan patton lyrics

i met a man who ran through fire
to save a boy from burning flames
and i asked why he’d done what he did
he said anyone would have done the same
when i asked why he never spoke to the newspaper or the tv
he handed me a drink and i sat down
and this is what that man said to me

he said i don’t need to be a hero
and i don’t need to be a saint
and i don’t need to be a legend
i don’t need to be something i ain’t
and i’ll never be something i ain’t

i met a man who took a bullet to save his buddies in the war
when i asked why he’d done what he did
he said they were all worth dying for
i asked why he never wore his medals
or sold his story and became a rich man
he said what is it that you don’t get?
tell me, what is it that you don’t understand?

cuz i don’t need to be a hero
and i don’t need to be a saint
and i don’t need to be a legend
i don’t need to be something i ain’t
and i’ll never be something i ain’t

i knew a man who raised a family
turned his boy into a man
when i asked why he’d done what he did
said someday you might understand
i asked why he never complained about the bills or the sacrifice
put his arm around my shoulder and whispered
i think you turned out alright
son i’m proud to be your hero
son i’m proud to be your saint
son i’m proud to be your legend
and son i’m proud of the way
that you’ve lived since i’ve been gone
and the man that you’ve become
