Verse 1
I thought by now I'd have life all figured out
A couple of kids and maybe a white picket fence house
I thought by now I'd maybe have a couple Grammy's won
Or just a little more to show for all the work I've done
But these dreams are holding me down
I can't see the sun for these clouds
Been holding 'em tight just like balloons in my hands
But I gotta let 'em go so I can breathe again
Chorus
I just gotta let 'em fly
Way up high into the heavens
I know I will be fine
Somehow I got to believe that
If it's meant to be, I don't have to worry
God will make a way to bring them back to me
But in the mean time
I just gotta let 'em fly-y-y-y
I gotta let 'em fly-y-y-y-y-y
Verse 2
When I was young, I had a vision of what life would be
And in many ways I've been more blessed than I could ever dream
So I'll keep on biding my time
There's nothing I can do to make the stars align
Chorus 2
So I'm gonna let 'em fly
Way up high into the heavens
I know I will be fine
Somehow I got to believe that, yeah
If it's meant to be, I don't have to worry
God will make a way to bring 'em back to me
But in the mean time
Bridge
I'm letting go of all the pressure
I'm letting go of all the pain
'Cause this is not a competition
There's no one else in my way
And if it's meant to be, I don't have to worry
If it's meant to be, I don't have to worry
If it's meant to be, I don't have to worry
Instrumental
Chorus
I just gotta let 'em fly
Way up high into the heavens
I know I will be fine
Somehow I got to believe that, yeah
If it's meant to be, I don't have to worry
God will make a way to bring them back to me
But in the mean time
I just gotta let 'em fly-y-y-y
I gotta let 'em fly-y-y-y-y-y
