Let me fly



 What are you looking up on the sky,
  Do you wanna fly?
  
  Sometimes i wanna fly away with busted wings
  Hurt by all the evil I've seen,
  
  Help me, their thinking shattered me
  Wanna fly away to seek tranquility for me,

   I feel trapped in the darkness of this world
   My mind is blank, I can't feel the world

  Depression is boring, it can make me strong
  Hiding my tears like nothing is wrong,
 
  Gotta see evil up from the sky
  Will smirk after hearing their lie,

  This world is toxic and the people are poison,
   Folk will cut my wings and bury them in soil

  Gotta touch the ceiling of the sky,
   I am a girl, Iet me fly.
