We used to feel like giants, build castles in the silence
We were king and queen until we opened up our eyelids
We used to play with lions, who said that they were violent?
They taught us how to dream until we threw it out for science

'Cause I wanna be fast as the speed of sound
But now, I'm running out of time
Make me believe I'm gonna reach the clouds
'Cause I just wanna feel alive
Look, mama, I can fly
When I was young, I touched the sky
Look, mama, I can fly
Don't you leave before me, this world has something for me

I'm scared to close my eyes, if I don't wake to see the morning
It's written in the stories that God above's recording
I'd rather die a hero than to live without the glory
'Cause I wanna be fast as the speed of sound
But now, I'm running out of time
Make me believe, I'm gonna reach the clouds

'Cause I just wanna feel alive
Look, mama, I can fly
When I was young, I touched the sky
Look, mama, I can fly
Ooh, ooh (na, na-na-na, na-na)
'Cause one day, I'll be out of time
(Na, na-na-na, na, na-na-na, na-na) ooh, ooh
And I just wanna feel alive
Look, mama, I can fly
(Na, na-na-na, na, na-na-na, na-na) ooh, ooh
Look, mama, I can fly
