'my Spirit's Learning To Fly'

--I stand alone in silence, as the world passes by, feeling my spirit in defiance, looking up and asking why,, --I looked into the distance, the horizons meeting the sky, heart's soaring in a trance, listening to the eagle's cry,, --My heart adapted with patience, my actions improvises to try, my overcoming this earthly resistance, and bounded into the sky,, - Chorus: My spirit's learning to fly, never looking back asking why, courageously climbing the open sky, winds drying my watery eye. - --I reached into the distance, up into the benevolent sky the freest feeling of existence, no one else can deny,, --Beware the winds of resistance, that blows in your way, competently navigating the natural turbulence, the raw nature on display,, --Never alone in my presence, among eagles in the sky, wing tips brushing freedoms' essence, singing with my eagle's cry,, - Break: Black clouds of great lightening, that clapped with destructive thunder, raining down upon the lands, turning death into life's plunder,, - --Caught in the storms' embrace, trapped in it's stormy eye, wearing my armor with grace, and roared my eagle's cry,, --My helmet's wisdom in place, with virtuous chainmail that apply, under freedom's breastplate for peace, bracing the storm's natural reply,, --Raising Liberty's shield of resistance, and gauntlet of knowledge's mystery, holding a truthful sword's competence, surviving the storm in victory,, - Chorus: _ --Landing on a tree's acceptance, watching the storm pass by, humbly thankful for continued existence, tears forming in my eye, --Colors glow in sunset radiance, natural artwork to the eye, stars come with twilight brilliance, and rested under the sky,, --Dawn crowns with clear illuminance, brightest light of the day, thankful for another days' existence, and bounded into the sky. _ Chorus:
