Analysis of A man named steve



The animals are crying for a man named Steve;
It's just so hard for all to believe.
That something so precious has been taken away;
He impacted all life on earth in his short stay.
But i believe his mission will go on;
In his children's hands, they must be strong.    I believes in his right to fight;
Cause all God's creatures has a purpose in life.
We must continue what he set out to do;
So he can smile down and won't feel so blue.
Cause he is watching from heaven above;
Of the job we're doing in the name of love.
As time goes by my heart still breaks;
For a man named Steve,  we miss you mate!
