Free

I am free 
Finally 
I can live happily 
I can skip
I may dance 
At least I might have a chance 
I'm no longer bound 
To only the ground 
I will fly 
The world was never really mine 
The air swallows me 
I am finally free
The ground is so hard 
The light is so bright 
Finally everything can be set right 
I'm going up 
Up, further up 
I never belonged 
I just made the world wrong
Now I'm free 
I'm happy 
And I flew 
It was nice 
I've never felt such a feeling in my life 
Sure, it hurt 
Looking back
To my past
My mother used to say to me, "love you're not normal you'll go far you will be a little star." 
But I did nothing in my lifetime 
I can hear the bells chime 
It's my time 
Now I'm rising above the clouds 
Goodbye Earth 
It's my rebirth
I am...... free
