Soaring like the Gods The Gods have touched the skies Why can’t I too? A dream to soar, With the likes of Zeus and Pluto Some have told me, My dreams are too big Others said I never would One day they’ll see, I’ll throw it back in their face The Gods have touched the skies, I’ll be soaring one day too With my wings of freedom And mind of reality Every “No you can’t” Gets a response of “Yes I can” Every rejection and denial I will take in stride As I stride with pride, My feet leave the ground, I’m soaring now, I’ll never return No one will bring me down, I am my own person No stone will hit this bird, No winter solstice will hinder my flight I showed them all, What a determined mind can do They said I wouldn’t That I couldn’t Soar like the Gods, In a sea of blue Well, look at me now I’m soaring above, My dreams, a vivid reality As I leave this place behind, And start a life of my own |

such a smooth and unforced flow to this....i clearly saw the meaning and glanced the reflection of how it could be misunderstood...nice writing... |
