Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story?
How does a washed up, widowed, son of a Nawlins restauranteur
Sent to the middle of a forgotten
Spot near to Cardassia by Providence encountering a wormhole
Then get to be a Captain and Messiah?
That three-pipped redshirt Commander, a single father
Went a lot farther by being a lot tougher
By being a lot rougher, by gatherin’ blood brothers
By Season 4, he turned into a badass muthafucka
And every day while ships were being shuttled to the Gamma
He learned to love Bajorans even though he didn’t wanna
Inside he was longing for something to be a part of
The brother was ready to build a family to be proud of
The Dominion came and devastation rained
Our man saw his principles dripping down the drain
Entered the Celestial Temple, where he went against the grain
Even though he felt the strain, unlike Dukat he still stayed sane
Well the word got around, everyone came to the station
Klingons and Ferengi, aliens without cessation
Prophets in the wormhole bringing trials and tribble-lations
And the whole Quadrant knew his name
What’s his name, man?
Captain Benjamin Sisko
My name is Captain Benjamin Sisko
And I have 7 seasons left to go
So just you wait
Just you wait…
