Meant to fly

An eagle was never meant to stay on the ground
But given wings to reach new heights every day
Soaring high above all that hinders flight
Gaining the breath of the freshest air
The more an eagle is bound to the winds of change
So it is more free than ever thought possible

I am meant to be as an eagle
Given all things to reach the glories of the sky
High above the hindrances of the world below
Gaining the breath of the freshest air
The more I am bound to the winds of change
So I am more free than I ever dreamed
