Summary: Let me spread my wings and fly…

---

Take me away from here.
Take away every single fear.
Just lead me out of this place.
I’ll spread my wings with beauty and grace.

I want to feel my wings and fly.
I want to feel the caress of a breeze in the deep blue sky.
I don’t want to be afraid anymore.
Just let me fly and let me soar.

Lead me higher and higher.
Lead me to my greatest desire.
What world are we living in?
Where peace and tolerance are weak and thin?

Where hatred is spread…
And life is hung by a thread.
And where war is fought…
What happened to the freedom our fathers have brought?

What happened to the freedom this country has fought for?
We have enough hate…must we take even more?
Why must discrimination be ample?
I want to feel that feeling when you know everything will be okay…if only just a taste or a sample.

I want to feel acceptance and love.
I want to fly high, high above.
I want to fly higher, where I can be with my loved ones,
Where I can travel past the silvery moons and shining suns.

I want the people to live without hiding their true beauty behind a mask.
But this I know is a challenging task.
Maybe I’ll just spread my wings and forget how to cry.
Let me fly through the fluffy clouds and the promising, deep blue sky.
I have one word for hate; why?

Maybe I’ll just fly as far as I can go and fly as far as I can see,
With my beautiful white feathers, trailing behind me.
