[Intro]
I won't change my name
No matter what they call me
I lost my only friend
And I'll grieve you 'til the end
Am I a hero?
Am I a hero now?
To die a hero
Is all that we know now
Am I a hero?
Am I a hero now?
Am I a hero?
Am I a hero now?
Yeah
Please don't shoot me down
I loved you like a brother
It's on the news again
I guess they killed another
Am I a hero?
Am I a hero now?
To die a hero
Is all that we know now
Oh, we all get told to go along
Oh, we know it's all for show
We know, we know
Am I a hero?
Am I a hero now?
To die a hero
Is all that we know now
Yeah
(Ooh, yeah)
(Ooh, yeah)
Am I a hero?
A fallen hero now?
Hear my sin, Lord
Speak no evil now
My amigo
No gun to reload now
A broken people
There go a negro now
I won't change my name
No matter what they call me
I lost my only friend
And I'll grieve you 'til the end
Am I a hero?
Am I a hero now?
To die a hero
Is all that we know now

Album KIWANUKA
In Hero Kiwanuka confronta l’omicidio dell’attivista degli anni ’60 Fred Hampton con le recenti sparatorie della polizia americana (“It’s on the news again, I guess they killed another”). Un bell'omaggio alla musica soul e alle sonorità anni 70 da questo cantautore britannico.
