I often heard others desire to be a bird however I never like the idea of being at the mercy of the wind
as nice as it would be to be as sure-footed as a mountain goat it's nice that there are no mountains to impede me
as much as I wish to be carefree like a jellyfish there are times when I find it best not to go with the flow
still even with the luxuries of being human if I could change I would
because despite I can go against the current it's only by separating myself from others
despite the land I walk upon being flat and paved each step needs to be firm
and even though the wind doesn't hinder  it still carries the voices that give me pause
