                        Born A Bird

If I was born a bird of the endless sky,

What would I dream if already I could fly.

What visions would I see when I’m fast asleep,

Unbothered by life, would I ever weep?

If I was born a bird I could spread my wings,

Take to the sky that each morning brings.

If I could glide on the wind, just where would I be?

If I was a bird would you have ever seen me?

And still I’d rather keep my memories,

Than to live at a bird’s eye view.

Cause what would I do above the trees,

Living without you?

What would I think of humanity,

Of the people who endorse superficial beauty,

Of people willing to give their money and gold,

Starving inside for somebody to hold.

Born as a bird, flying safe and sound.

I am here with you above the ground.

The body’s limitation is merely a lie,

For I have no wings, but you’ve helped me to fly.
