I don't know why I've been wishing uou'll come around
I let you catch me walking with my chin to the ground
Gotta get my head back on my shoulders
Gotta set my sight to the sky
I need to make it right and let you own me
But tonight I fly

And now I'mma, I'mma, I'mma, I'mma go
And you will, you will, you will watch me soar
I've been chained to the bottom
I've been caged like a bird
I've been judged
I've been bullied
But I couldn't say a word
I'm flying, getting higher
And you watch me from the dirt
You can't reach me
You can't touch me
Watch me soar like a bird
Watch me soar like a bird

I don't know how I let you control my whole life
I was just a dreamer but you pushed that aside
Now I'm in the clouds but I'm not sleeping
Tried to shove me down but I'm awake
I let you get the best I had to offer
But my dreams you could not take

And now I'mma, I'mma, I'mma, I'mma go
And you will, you will, you will watch me soar
I've been chained to the bottom
I've been caged like a bird
I've been judged
I've been bullied
But I couldn't say a word
I'm flying, getting higher
And you watch me from the dirt
You can't reach me
You can't touch me
Watch me soar like a bird
Watch me soar like a bird
