We Take Flight

steady, silent, swift...

each moment of our lives we have to realize
that who we are inside has yet to be recognized
we grew up knowing bad as our friend
and that the time that we spend will come to an end
but as we turn towards the skies and hear heaven's
cry that never dies,
inside we get the strength to fly
with our wings spread wide and the clouds drifting by

strong...

all day long we live our lives singing that same song
with the sympathy for others and love for one another
never missing a beat as we move our feet to the sweet rays
of the suns heat

drifting...

our hearts know lifting
we sense our feelings shifting
back to how it used to be before all of our guilt
shut us down

speechless...

can you hear the cries of newborn life?
that inside has left us sleep deprived from our own thoughts?

but never fear for the day will come
the war will be won and all of our pain will be done

don't step back, keep moving forwards toward the light
don't be afraid to take that first step because today
we take flight
