Let Me Fly

Running towards the edge of a cliff
Will I fall, or will I fly?
Will I tumble to the bottom?
Will I soar across the sky?
some people use a bungee
to keep them nice and safe
But it only serves to keep them in their place
  
So ill take my chances with these wings of hope
As I fly into the sun
If you see me through your telescope
just know I’m having fun
And if you see me flying by
don’t look upon me with a frown
for if I choose to stay in the sky
its because I wasn’t happy on the ground
  
Let me fly
Give me a lift
Let me live among the clouds
Let me try with the gifts
with which I’ve been endowed
And if I make it to the moon
then I’ll know I made you proud
