Soaring Beyond Limits: Embracing Dreams with Unbound Wings
Lyrics
We work so hard to get away
We put in a lot of effort to escape from our current situation.
We turn this ground inside out everyday
We thoroughly examine and explore our surroundings every day.
And I can tell we are right on the same page
It's evident that we share the same perspective or understanding.
Let’s hit the sky ‘cause it’s our saving grace
Let's aim for the sky because it's our source of salvation.
But one of us got to go now, I’m stepping up toward the edge
One of us needs to leave now; I'm taking a bold step towards the unknown.
You’re the one that made the wings, girl, and I am just Icarus
You provided the means (wings), and I am like Icarus, risking too much.
We’re flying out toward our freedom, no matter what people say
We are moving towards freedom despite any opposition.
I’m jumping, never looking back
I'm taking a leap without hesitation, leaving the past behind.
‘Cause it’s like a dream
This experience feels surreal, like a dream.
Flying oh so high I could touch the sun right now
I'm flying so high that I feel invincible, like I can touch the sun.
It’s like a dream
Reiterating the dreamlike nature of the situation.
My wings are burning but I’m never coming down
Despite challenges (burning wings), I refuse to come back down.
It’s like a dream
Emphasizing the surreal quality of the experience.
You tell me to make sure I’m not shooting way too high
You advise me to be realistic, not aiming too high.
But I can’t live with myself unless
I can't compromise my integrity; my dreams know no limits.
My dreams all have no borderlines
Expressing a commitment to limitless dreams.
But one of us got to go now, I’m stepping up toward the edge
Similar to line 5, reiterating the decision to take a risk.
You’re the one that made the wings, girl, and I am just Icarus
Repeating the metaphor of the other person providing the means to fly.
We’re flying out toward our freedom, no matter what people say
Continuing the journey towards freedom despite opposition.
I’m jumping, never looking back
Repeating the determination to move forward without looking back.
‘Cause it’s like a dream
Reiterating the dreamlike quality of the experience.
Flying oh so high I could touch the sun right now
Emphasizing the height of the experience, feeling close to the sun.
It’s like a dream
Repeating the dream metaphor.
My wings are burning but I’m never coming down
Despite challenges, there's a determination not to come back down.
It’s like a dream

Leaving behind everything that kept me grounded.
