Today, Tonight

Today is the day 
I will betray
All laws of gravity and motion

Today I rise above myself 
I’ll leave no possibilities on the shelf 
I celebrate my new being 

Tonight is the night 
I will take flight
I'll defy the rules of life 

Today I'm reborn into a new me 
Tonight my soul has been set free 
I will allow myself to live
