asked me yesterday
 boy what do you want to be
 with some work
 in ten years or so
 you could be sitting here just like me
 he said your future looks crystal clear
 I just gotta get away from here
 CHORUS
 I want to be an eagle soaring high
 sign my name across the sky
 I gotta break free before I die
 before another day
 before another day goes by
 My mother said
 just the other day
 boy get your feet on the ground
 she looked at me
 in such a way
 I said Ma
 please don't bring me down
 I said my future is crystal clear
 just gotta get away from here
 CHORUS
 Before I waste another minute
 live my life without me in it
 CHORUS
