I made it so far
Encompassed by greatness
I cleared the bar
Feeling weightless
The sun calls my name
My makeshift wings
Crying in pain
It all stings
I flew too close
I got caught up in it all
My blood barely flows
Feeling so tall
Above the ground
Above the land
I wanted to astound
To do more than just stand
But I got trapped by greed
Wanted more
Now I beg to be freed
Life only feels like a chore
I flew too high
I didn't mean to
Sometimes I want to die
And sometimes I wish I never flew
