Pilot


I am who I am They may follow But I shall not lead there destiny They control it not I  And no one controls mine I myself am the pilot They could take my home They could bring death  They may even destroy my way And bring a Jupiter storm But this pilot still fly And I shall continue  Until I'm tried And when I am I shall glide And when awake fly again I will never let myself hit the ground
