Little bird
Was in cage
'Wanted to break free from it
Find a subtle way
To fly through the golden bars
Little bird
Felt so much rage
'Could no longer stand the bullshit
Who and why obey?
Passersby heard her sing to the stars:
"This is the day
This is the day
Iʼm finally gonna own myself
This is my day
This is my day
Bless my new life
This is the day
This is the day
Bless my new self
My wings will take me
To my destiny"
She was brave
And had some nerve
To go on fasting for eight days
She got thinner than ever
Just enough to sneak through the bars
All that she gave
Sheʼll get in return
Listen to her singing, giving praise
Flying over the world affairs afar
Little bird is cheering up
Flying closer to the sun
Closer to the sun
Little bird is healing from the past
With new found freedom
New found freedom
And she goes...
