learning to fly

I've made mistakes

but I won't be ashamed

it feels like fate is liftin' me

I can't seem to keep my feet on the ground.

I no longer hide

so I let the sun wash over me

'cause there's no darkness left

to hold me down.

and I feel it's light,

now I found the spark

that was missin' in my life.

I earned these wings,

I was not born with them

& it's no accident

how I walked through

the rain and the fire.

'cause it taught me how to love.

it taught me how to fight.

& finally, I'm learning to fly.

when you lose your way

when your heart breaks

when you can't escape

you feel just like a prisoner

of all the world says you will never be.

that's when you can't give up,

gotta hold on tighter now than ever

the answers will find you when you believe.

and I feel it's light,

now I found the spark

that was missin' in my life.

and I tried, yeah I tried, to get somewhere I'd rather be

but sometimes the fastest way is not so easy.

I earned these wings,

I was not born with them

& it's no accident

how I walked through

the rain and the fire.

'cause it taught me how to love.

it taught me how to fight.

& finally, I'm learning to fly.
