A Fire Within (original superhero story), Livewire | Connor | ReVolt

(hello yes I saw this neatly baited hook and I am biting)

From Hero to Villain(elle)

I left my cape behind, my life to gain
(I promised "birth to death" - it was a lie)
for with great power comes the greatest pain

No guilded, gleaming children can complain
enshrined in gold on pedestals so high
I left my cape behind, my life to gain

My world became an echoing refrain
"be better, best, no step can go awry"
and with great power comes the greatest pain

So I with lightning scorching through my veins
went groundward, sought my refuge from the sky
I left my cape behind, my life to gain

Authority will call my acts profane
a spark, once lit, must always amplify
but with great power comes the greatest pain

The golden child is crumpled, broken, slain
for me to live, my old self had to die
I left my cape behind, my life to gain
For with great power comes the greatest pain
