Being a caged bird My whole life is planned I've a song in my heart But I can't sing unless they command First they clipped my wings And then opened to me the whole sky They said,"The world is your oyster. Then why are you afraid to fly?" All my life I had to do What I had been told I never had a say in my life But now they complain why I aren't bold They kept telling me How I was lagging behind Finally I gave up on my dreams And they asked why I am so resigned All I can say is That not everyone is meant to fly Some like to walk And defy the sky.
Wow.....well said.....my story....only now I have learnt to enjoy my walk....taking things in my stride.
