I Wanna Fly

Sometimes I have big dreams but small hopes.

I wrote a song

Just to prove them all wrong,

But it didn’t take long

Before I found out they’re right.

 

I try to work hard

But I don’t go very far,

Got my head in the stars

And I don’t put up a fight.

 

I pray every day

But things just don’t go my way

I hear the angels, they say

To keep the goal in my sight.

 

I try to live free

Just like I’m living my dream

But sometimes it just seems

That it’s the end of the night.

 

But it’s fine,

I’ll be alright.

I decided to start,

but the end is in sight.

 

I’ll be fine,

Just act polite.

‘Cause I’m dying inside

But there’s a flame I’ll ignite.

 

I wanna fly away,

Where the sun meets the sky in a beautiful way.

So come and fly away.

There’s a million things we could be anyway.

 

I say I’m not great

I leave my choices to fate

I often wait ‘til too late

And hope my future is bright.

 

I’ve got homework due

But I’m here singing with you

I have to tell you, it’s true,

This is the thing that I like.

 

The sun’s in the sky,

It’s where I wish I could fly,

But I’m just too scared to try.

I’d have to fall to take flight.

 

The clouds seem so far

And I don’t like taking cars

I’d have to reach in my heart

To find the courage to bike.

 

But it’s fine,

I’ll be alright.

I decided to start,

but the end is in sight.

 

I’ll be fine,

Just act polite.

‘Cause I’m dying inside

But there’s a flame I’ll ignite.

 

I wanna fly away,

Where the sun meets the sky in a beautiful way.

So come and fly away.

There’s a million things we could be anyway.

 

I wanna fly,

Oh, I wanna fly.

I loved your production of this song! This is my favorite vibe of music. Please continue to make more, but don't rush since this song must have taken you awhile to create and its value is worth the time.

Thank you so much! It did take me a decent amount of time, but I hope to learn how to master my songs better with more practice. If things go well, I'll be releasing another song soon!
