show me the money, fuck the fame. Why would I want to be an icon of this country, when I can provide for my own people and family?

Would you rather be the biggest icon of your country or the highest paid athlete?

and their names will still ring true long after the coins stop swirling...
yes, they won't hear the praises.....
but they did what they did out of their principles and conviction.....
not to hear praises

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
