One day

One day

I want to leave

I need to leave

I feel like a bird in a cage

I was meant to fly

but then you cut my wings

I'm filled with rage

"Stay present" they say

but how do I stay 

when I was created

in the hope

that one day

I'll fly away

let me out

let me out

let me go

and join the strong

who hold themselves up

by holding hands

I will be strong

and I will fly one day
