i'm in my room

it's awful dark

just waiting for that little spark of life

to light me up

it's when i'm feeling stuck

but i just wish that i could be

something more inspiring

i'll step into the night

and show the world my light

i wanna be a small hero

a little bit of honor

so i can tell my father i'm a slow hero

not the biggest one of all

if only one person would call me a hero

out in the world it's awful dark

it's push and shove

don't miss the mark

or i might miss my chance and forfeit all my plans

look in the mirror and see the truth

have i become what i'm into

i only have this life

to do it all just right

i wanna be a small hero

not necessarily a goddess or a queen

just a small hero

if i only one person would smile

cause i made it worth their while i'm a hero

ooh ah yeah yeah

inspire me i'd like to dream

i'd like to fly away free

inspire me

inspire me i'd like to dream

i'd like to fly away free

inspire me

inspire me i'd like to dream

i'd like to fly away free

inspire me

inspire me i'd like to dream

i'd like to fly away free

inspire me

it's up to me to feel inside

that i am worth my love and pride

not just inspire you

i'll be my hero

too i wanna be a small hero

at the end of every day

i can smile as i say i'm a small hero

i am more than meant to be big or small

you can call me a hero
