FLY LIKE ASH

FLY LIKE ASH

It was once told to me

You are going to save this world on your own

And make the whole world yours

When you are grown, make yourself known

I was told once

You don’t know who you are

In the eyes of God

You are a shining star

You told me once

I’m doing it all for you

When I can do it all for me

Pull off and get through

Many a times I’ve been told

The difference between right and wrong

When it’s people telling me

Wrong is what they could not be along

Hell, I’ve been told a lot

The dos and don’ts

Don’t you see what you say

Is exactly what I condone

Now it’s my simple appeal

Shut up! I don’t need you telling me

Who I am, what I can be

God and mortals right and wrong how I see

Let me learn my life by my own

With every falling night, every new dawn

Don’t worry for me failing, for me getting hurt

It’s better to fall in dirt, than hear you blurt

I don’t want to rise from the ashes

I want to fly as them

And if and when I fall

On my own, I want to start the crawl again
