Strong And Tall

"touch the sky"

By InstinctsPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

Burn the deadwood and focus on the good.

In my heart I know I am from the hood.

But I wanna climb the mountain to the top and touch the sky.

I wanna never stop and fly oh so high.

But I can't carry all this deadwood with me see.

I got to burn it or cast it out to sea.

Only then will I really be free.

Lingering desires of things not meant I know.

Singing in the fire and grasping tight my woe.

Well it's all good now cuz I'm gonna let it go.

I got music and passion and a heart that just won't quit.

I'm gonna use it and fashion some wings to take off swift.

Sky bound on the sound of my destiny you see.

But it ain't gonna happen if I don't make it be.

Oh yes destined or not it's still all up to me.

The same is true for you too.

So don't be shy about what you meant to do.

You got the magic so heed your hearts call.

Weave life's fabric and stand strong and tall.
