Analysis of Valiant
What does it take
To stand amongst the brave?
Is it an act of defiance?
Or that leap it takes to save
A girl hellbent on self-reliance?
How can you make
A coward into the courageous?
Do you throw him a sword and shield?
Or culture a heart tenacious
Full of fire and zeal?
Raise your banner and wake
Become the change you wish to see
Honorable, true, and gallant
For a golden heart ever yearns to be
Free and Valiant
