I’m Gonna Fly

[Intro]
Yeah
You ever have one of them days
When you wake up and you wish
You could just forget about everything?
Throw the pain away for just one minute?
Look at the sunshine instead of the rain?
You know what I mean?
Smile

[Verse 1]
And I was drivin' down the road today
And saw the sun shine through my window
It made me smile
Yeah, I ain't done that in a while, that in a while
Yeah, I saw a rainbow up in the sky
It made me wanna grow wings and spread them and fly
I could if I tried to
Listen, heck, the birds in the sky do, the birds in the sky do
Sometimes I see the rain comin' up in the clouds
I could care less, let the rain come down on my face
Go wash the pain away, wash the pain away
See, I don't like the feelin' of losing control
But at least for one moment, I'ma let things go
And just be myself
Spread my wings and yell, wings and yell

[Chorus]
I'm gonna fly
I don't care what nobody says
And I don't care what nobody thinks
I'm gonna fly
Forget about everything else
And put a smile on and just be me
I'm gonna fly
Forget about the tears in my eyes
And for a moment, leave it behind me
I'm gonna fly (Yeah)
Yeah, I'm gonna fly (I'm gonna fly, yeah)

[Verse 2]
I was driving down the road today and saw the rain fall on my windshield
It made me sad
But then I laughed, then I laughed
'Cause everybody knows it's gotta rain
Sun wouldn't feel so good if it never felt pain
I like that sound
But when I look around, I look around
I see people just like me
Sick of dealing with the pain, tryin' to follow their dreams
And I get lost in the moment
In case you haven't noticed, yeah
Everybody wants love, but I don't know where to find it
So I wrote a song as a little reminder
Just be myself
And nobody else, nobody else

[Chorus]
I'm gonna fly
I don't care what nobody says
And I don't care what nobody thinks
I'm gonna fly
Forget about everything else
And put a smile on and just be me
I'm gonna fly
Forget about the tears in my eyes
And for a moment, leave it behind me
I'm gonna fly (Yeah)
Yeah, I'm gonna fly (I'm gonna fly, yeah)

[Verse 3]
This is my moment
So I'ma do my best to control it
I feel like I'm walkin' through a door that has never been opened
What's on the other side
I don't have a clue where I'm goin'
To be honest, I could care less if anyone knows it
I put on a smile and both of my feet through the door
All of a sudden, I don't feel the pain anymore
For some reason, I feel like I'm apart from the ground
Like every pain that I'd ever felt is off of me now
Must be flyin' or somethin', what am I, up in a cloud?
Look at me, wow, well this is kinda freakin' me out
Must be a dream, either way, I don't wanna come down
Like the feelin' of feeling, like I've no longer been bound
Turn around for a second, I look back and the door shut
Maybe I should go back, but I don't know for what
Come on, Nate, you must be losin' your mind
Maybe so, but here I go, follow me up to the skies, singing

[Chorus]
I'm gonna fly
I don't care what nobody says
And I don't care what nobody thinks
I'm gonna fly
Forget about everything else
And put a smile on and just be me
I'm gonna fly
Forget about the tears in my eyes
And for a moment, leave it behind me
I'm gonna fly (Yeah)
Yeah, I'm gonna fly (I'm gonna fly, yeah)
