LYRICS:

Who clipped your wings and put you down
Who ever thought one word
Could tie you to the ground
To those who told you what you are ain’t good enough
Let ‘em know that you will rise above
Let ‘em know that you will rise above

Sparrow
Up and fly away
There’s a brighter day
We don’t have to stay here anymore
Little sparrow
We can own the sky
There’s a better world in sight
We don’t have to stay here anymore

I feel a shifting in the wind
With every morning comes a new day to begin forever
To those who told me who I am should disappear
You haven’t seen the view from way up here

Sparrow

Up and fly away
There’s a brighter day
We don’t have to stay here anymore
Little sparrow
We can own the sky
There’s a better world in sight
We don’t have to stay here anymore

Sparrow
Sparrow
You might be bending but you’re not breaking
You are a miracle in the making
So if we fall, it’s a chance worth taking
On the horizon, the dawn is breaking

Sparrow
Up and fly away
There’s a brighter day
We don’t have to stay here anymore
Little sparrow
We can own the sky
There’s a better world in sight
We don’t have to stay here anymore
Anymore

Sparrow
We can own the sky
There’s a better world in sight
We don’t have to stay here anymore
