Fly away
Verse 1
Once upon a time
There was a little girl who'd grown to believe that
She wasn't good enough and
She had to give it up
But she kept pushing on and on, yeah she stayed strong
See, she had a dream and she was ready to fly
Now I have a dream and I'm ready to fly (fly, fly)
I'm ready to fly (fly, fly), see I ...
Verse 2
I gave up all my dreams, thought I wasn't good enough
It was all part of a scheme to make me give it up
I had to dig deep within just to get back on up
I had to stand on my feet so I could face the fight
My world crashed at its peak, I wasn't strong enough
When I had nowhere to sleep this verse kept me up
When I had no food to eat I had to toughen up
When my heart broke into pieces, thought I'd given up
But my spirit persisted, led me to believe
that I would see the light if I really had a dream
And so I went to sleep, prayed the Lord my soul to keep
Had to keep it real when I woke, yeah I had a dream
(aah yeah) like the legend did
Martin Luther King set my mind free
‘Cause if my mind was free my heart could believe
and if my heart believed, I knew I could achieve
Chorus
Verse3
Ready to fly high way over the sky
Never tell you a lie, my truth is my pride
Visions are getting played out right before I die
I'm living in the moment but the future is mine
We then tried all we could, still we’re struggling
Straight hustling but nothing really goes as planned
Nobody gives you nothing man, you gotta work
And ladies do your thing, no need to share your skirts
Can't put a price on what your life is worth
Get off the ground and dust off the dirt
Either way you'll make it man if you try harder
Dream and you'll believe that you can fly further
And when they hold you down, that’s when you get stronger
And if you fly away, spread your wings longer
Undying love will temper your pain
So when the cards are down, just dance in the rain
Chorus
