My Birds Fly High

3/31/15

My Birds Fly High

I flew too high and singed my wings

I won’t back down for anything

When I think of you

I know why I needed to

I flew so high and touched the sun

One day ends as another has begun

I am not you
You can't be me

My Birds

I want what’s best for everyone

Turn back a clock

Rewind time

To the day when we all shine

I flew too high and singed my wings

I won’t back down for anything

When I think of you

I know why I needed to

Fly so high and touch the sun

So you can see another day has begun

I used to think birds weren’t supposed to fly so high

Safe at home, in my nest watching over all of you

Now I know you need to fly

So high you singe your wings

You can do anything

And whether I am leading high or hanging low,

I’ll never, never let you go

Except to fly so high you touch the sun

Singe your wings and embrace everything.
