[Verse 1]
I'm holding on by a thread
There's not much of a breeze today
I keep tripping on the clouds, yeah
And I'm not used to you if I fall down
I can feel the wind beneath me
It's so you keep believing
Something needs to give right now
Or this ain't working out
[Pre-Chorus]
All this back and forth, tug of war
I don't like you anymore
You see I wouldn't mind if you just let me go
I'll float away or fall with grace
Either way, it's all the same
I think it's about time I do this on my own
[Chorus]
Kites in the skies
Kites in the skies
[Verse 2]
There's so many giants around me
Trying to stay out of the way of shadows
Open for some air to support me
'Cause it's hard not to feel small through my travels
If you steer, please don't stray
Oh, that grey keep me away
I don't need this rain right now, yeah
'Cause you're no use to me if I fall down
[Pre-Chorus]
All this back and forth, tug of war
I don't like you anymore
You see I wouldn't mind if you just let me go
I'll float away or fall with grace
Either way, it's all the same
I think it's about time I do this on my own
[Chorus]
Kites in the skies
Kites in the skies

“Kites” is about having an aerial perspective and realizing what’s important to me. And understanding that regardless if I stay afloat or if I fall—kites just don’t fall, they fall to grace. What’s important is the people steering. It’s basically about who’s important to me and that’s my loved ones....
