Keep Flying

To soar like an eagle, high, way high in the sky
To explore spaces and places others fear to go, confident the heart knows why

To be directed, focused, and free
To fly above the treetops and overlook 'Mother-Earth' and know that you must forever BE

To learn how to fly above the storms and not against them, for they are real
To be smart and take  rest when the wings get heavy, but keep the vision on the celestial sky because it's God's will

Flying! Now that's what you were born to do
If you try to do otherwise, then you're through

Oh! Big, beautiful mountains  coming on the horizon
Keep flying! Now that's the ticket, for you must keep rising

Quitting, faltering, hesitating, plummeting... no, none of this can be...
You must keep flying, rising, and soaring for the whole world to see
