An Ode to Optimus Prime

A mountain of metallic muscle
When angered, unstoppable rage
Weapons that can pierce the strongest alloy
A sense to always beat the deranged

A spark full of kindness
A voice full of warmth
A touch full of gentleness
A gaze full of tenderness
A perfect sense of right and wrong

Hands stained with blood
Regret haunting his CPU
Sorrow filling his spark
And sadness in his icy-blue optics

Wishing to return to simpler times
When Cybertron was a whole
And its citizens lived without discretion
And no war was going on

A war hardened mech
With a pure, kind spark
So sympathetic
With a love for all life
Saving any sentient beings
Will forever be his strife

Such a willing 'Bot
Who shall never give up
Full of so much courage and zeal
And not afraid of anything
The most treasured 'Bot around

Truly, the most respected Autobot of all
Is the honorable Optimus Prime

You Got The Touch by Stan Bush

You got the touch
You got the power

After all is said and done
You've never walked, you've never run,
You're a winner

You got the moves, you know the streets
Break the rules, take the heat
You're nobody's fool

You're at your best when when the goin' gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough

You got the touch
You got the power

When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding the eye of the storm

You got the heart
You got the motion

You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch

You never bend, you never break
You seem to know just what it takes
You're a fighter

It's in the blood, it's in the will
It's in the mighty hands of steel
When you're standin' your ground

And you never get hit when your back's to the wall
Gonna fight to the end and you're takin' it all

You got the touch
You got the power

When all hell's breakin' loose
You'll be riding the eye of the storm

You got the heart
You got the motion

You know that when things get too tough
You got the touch

You're fightin' fire with fire
You know you got the touch

You're at your best when the road gets rough
You've been put to the test, but it's never enough

You got the touch
You got the power

You got the touch
You got the power
