V1

Don’t hide your wings

Now that you’ve learned to fly

Don’t be afraid

To stump and mystify

Your world is a diner

Where you can choose to feed

Let the stars be your ceiling

Don’t hide your wings

 

V2

Can’t smell the roses

From a hundred feet away

Can’t dance you know it

If the music doesn’t play

You’re groomed for adventure

Nothing for you to hide

Show your awesome wings

Catch some air and ride

 

Bridge

Deny who you are

And you won’t make it far

Your thirst is a curse

When you hide your wings

 

V3

Don’t hide your wings

It’s wicked when you sail

Don’t be persuaded

Into thinking that you’ll fail

Lead with a vengeance

Unveil your inner core

Don’t you hide your wings

Let your dreams soar
