"Last night I dreamt I was free
It's getting harder to breathe in here
Everyone's chasing for gold
I'd rather die than get old, get old
Ground control is giving me the green light
Putting on my cape I'm gonna reach new heights tonight, I'm
Flyin', through the sky
I'm gonna get it right before I die
I'm tryin', to keep on
Smilin'
And fly on, fly on, fly on
Seems like I'm stuck in this suit
It's hard to bear the truth sometimes
What if I showed the real me?
I know they'd call me a freak, a freak
Ground control is giving me the green light
Putting on my cape I'm gonna reach new heights tonight, I'm
Flyin', through the sky
I'm gonna get it right before I die
I'm tryin', to keep on
Smiling
And fly on, fly on, fly on
Where did the boy go who
followed his heart?
Never regret or have any doubt.
Sometimes the deeper you go, the higher you fly
The harder you live, the questions the whys
From sunset to sunrise, life’s disguise
Under vow’s truth we hide and how breathe it’s time
To take off like a rocketman
Soaring through the galaxy
Minding new atmospheres
Clearing ways, processing thoughts
Feel the wind in your wings lift off"
