I have a way
I see it clear
It’s in my slight
Then it disappears

I’ve searched and searched
The stratosphere
Only to find
I’m nowhere near

Does it rest before me
Hiding behind a shield
Invisible to see
There is no touch or feel

It’s a sense of ecstasy
It’s pulling at my strings
Patiently awaiting
Me to grow my wings

To fly up to the stars and back
All while being under attack
From all those that can’t relax
I ramp up the volume to the max

Listen up
I’m not a crook
I’ve earned my way
I’m on the books

Don’t you judge
I will not budge
Open fire
Now watch me lunge

Right into
Your waiting arms
Hold me close
Under the stars

Close your eyes
Make a wish
Take the leap
It’s worth the risk

Fly away
Like a bird
My time on earths’
Misunderstood

Out to lunch
Out for blood
Steer away
From my neighborhood

Stand up straight
Face your fears
It won’t take place
For a thousand years

But when it does
Boast your cheers
Loud enough
For all to hear
