That Hat Wasn't Born Yet

You can't keep biting at my heels

Every time I take a step

Avoiding the eggshells

And I fear someday the crunch beneath my feet

Will be your brittle baby bird bones

Because try as you might

You will never be able to support my weight

Now watch me navigate this wire you've laid is slack rope

Though it may look it, my steps in that dance won't

Live up to your decree, just let me be, I'd rather have you clip those wings

Let me fall

So you take flight

Try as I might

So you take flight

Try as I might

So you take flight

Try as I might

So you take flight

Try as I might

Flap and flail through the wind

The storm is gaining on you and you can't outrun your fate

You have the vantage point but that just means you have longer until you hit the ground

Your feathers will never belong to me

Your feathers will never belong to me

Your feathers will never belong to me

Your feathers will never belong to me

Your feathers will never belong to me
