Let my wings be freed
<p style="text-align: center;">I know your minds are set,</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">You wish me nothing but success.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">But how am I to own it</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">When I stay protected inside your nest?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">If only for once you would listen</p>
<p>To what my sincere heart's saying:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Please let me first <strong>spread</strong> my wings,</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">To chase those stars I call dreams.</p>
