I Was Told To Be The Leader, I Did Not Ask To Be The Leader

It's not my fault that Splinter made me leader

I didn't ask him too

You act as if I am invincible

Like nothing can hurt or kill me

But I get hurt nearly everyday

And what hurts me is

That my brothers just see me as the leader

And not as their big brother

I know that they all love me

And I know that they know that I am their big brother

But sometimes they forget

And just treat me as a leader

But truth be told that

I would never give up being leader

I may not have asked for it in the first place

But I am glad that I did get it

It does not matter if my brothers

Sometimes forget that I am their big brother

Because I will never forget that they are my little brothers

Not even for a second

It helps me protect them

Me being the leader

I am the first one in to battle

The first one into any area of danger

I don't like being the leader

But as long as I am the leader

Then none of my little brothers can be

And that is the only reason I stay as the leader

I don't want any of them to suffer the way

I do each and everyday

It would kill me if any of them had to
