Once, my actions were juvenile,
a naive youth with a cute smile.
A wingless bird, I could not fly,
but now, my wings soar through the sky.
I'd forgotten we are but dust
and in whom I should place my trust.
I was grounded, living a lie,
but now, my wings soar through the sky.
A would-be king seeking a crown,
I allowed pride to drag me down.
And feeling all alone, I'd cry,
but now, my wings soar through the sky.
For the first time, I prayed to God,
"Father, forgive me; I am flawed."
I made my peace, ready to die,
but now, my wings soar through the sky.
