The Silent Fighter

 A song about the great late Henry/Hank Aaron.

The Silent Fighter

I'm spinning all around

You knew history could be changed 

One swing after another 

And it's raining on a clear day

I look at the headstone in front of me

The field has been looking a bit empty 

The seat has been empty too

If you were only here again

Mr. Aar-aar-aron

Come back swing one more time

Mr. Aar-aar-aron

The Moblie streets have been looking different 

ATL ain't the same 

Your memory is living on

Hate never stopped your will

The silent fighter that you are

Forget what they say

Go ahead and swing that bat

Go ahead and hit 715

Make them open their eyes and minds

What they gonna do

When you step into the box

Change history and prove yourself 

Oh, Mr. Aaron, 

We'll keep your memory alive

And when we feel like you are here

In this stadium, we will win it all

Just for you

And it's raining on clear day

As I look at the gravestone in front of me

I go and hug you

Tell you want won it all

And the rain on this clear day

Rolls down my cheek

Oh Mr. Aaron

Come down with a smile

Come look at we built 

Come look at what we can do

Heaven has called 

And I don't want to let you go

I sit down by the wall

With rain on clear day

So sad to see you leave

Mr. Aaron

You were so much more

Than what the numbers said

More than 715

Would the Babe smile as well?

Come, give it up

For the great Mr. Aaron

Come on, give it up 

For the great Mr. Aaron

Maybe even The Babe would smile

From the clouds

Come on, give it up

For Mr. Aaron

Come on, give it up

For Mr. Aaron

Maybe even the Babe would smile

From the clouds
