Grown Up

As grown ups we value
Things that don’t set us free
We ponder over bite and fright
As if it were are only right
We need to grow up 
And yet be free
Like children in a playground
Simmering with zeal
How do we get this free
What is missing in our DNA
To be childlike and glee
Holding onto dreams will set us free
From everyday lulls like a dead wheel
So dream away
Set yourself free
That’s the only way to be a childlike flight
Migrating to the bright
