Sun shines through the blinds Open your eyes little girl
It’s the first day of school time to step into the world
Time flies pops she’s growing no matter how hard you try
Wishing you could stop time trying so hard not to cry
Swollen with pride and sorrow all at the same time
Faint lines of crayon stain your sleep drained mind
And yet you’re forced to smile see her all dressed up
Hair still all messed up rite now you can only feel blessed enough
The whole car ride she sits she’s squirming with joy
But on your insides a mixture of hurting and joy
You pull up to the gates you feel numb to the core
She’s still sitting there yet you’ve never missed her this much before
You walk her in then she hugs and kisses you goodbye
Let go of her hand to this man she’s your whole world in his eyes
Never knowing it’s the last time he’ll see his baby alive
Never knowing soon tears will blind his tired eyes
So soar baby soar, touch the sky
Only God knows why we still down here crying
Soar baby soar, you always wanted to fly
Let your soul lift, no grip dying just a part of life
Soar baby soar, touch the sky
Dance among the stars time can’t dry these eyes
Soar baby soar Let your soul drift high,
Alive in our hearts you will never die
It’s like when you left you took our hearts with you
In my head I think back the memories that start with you
Never thought I’d have to part with you
Never thought all I’d have left of you is a scar of you
Engraved in my soul I’m enslaved by this cold stone
My eyes fixed on it I feel like I’m all grown
No one knows why you did what you did
That gun rang still fit in your cold grip, fell let your soul drift
Remember when we were kids could understand death
Worlds now so sick, don’t care another mans dead
with every kid that falls my soul gets heavy
It’s like what did I do wrong, why was he so ready
To take his life, end his suffering this road’s so cold
Can’t break this strife, force to grow before we’re even old
Break the cycle our hearts too long have been torn
Make this like full and soar baby soar
