Myths About Flight
How bittersweet it is
Flight
They say you have to leave the nest one day and face the world
They failed to mention the fighting part
Oh how bittersweet it is
Fight or Flight
The world will chew you up and spit you out like something rotten
You either fight or fly to survive
You are judged either way
Bittersweet it is
You were told that taking Flight is an amazing feat
Yet here we are experiencing something hard to beat
Bittersweet
They failed to inform us about the pain to come
Throw us out clean and unscathed we come back with scars from every fight
Bittersweet
Fight or Flight
With Flight comes Fight we are not given a choice
