You say that I’m not meant to fly,
but who’s keeping me from trying
to let these dreams take flight?
No, I don’t mean to cause alarm,
and I never meant to harm
those views that you’ve kept inside.
Don’t look down on that you’ve never tried.
Now it’s only time before this catches up to you.
And now I just want to fly far away
but you’ll say to come down and stay.
For once, I’d like to just get away
from this crowd to stay.
I dream that one day we might find
all the questions behind
these answers we’ve found, unknowingly.
But, until that day, I swear
I’ll do my best to bear the strength
to make it through the day.
So please, please swallow your pride,
long enough to find your way.
It’s not often people get to see it twice.
And now I just want to fly far away
but you’ll say to come down and stay.
For once, I’d like to just get away
from this crowd to stay.
