Poised to Soar

We sailed across the oceans We drove our proud bow into shore We climbed into the mountains We crouched and now we're poised to soar Gonna break the chains that bind us to the floor Gonna set our dragons flying high We're going to smile from the back of our eyes We're going to dare to be wise Sometimes you've got to jump and pray for wings while others, who can't abide such things remain behind and watching as you rise will wonder how you learned to fly
