Heroes Take Flight in the USA

Break Me


Push Me


I’d love to see you try


We may fall


But we can get back up


We can be pushed alongside the edge


But we can watch our steps


We can endure Hell


And still have a Smirk on our face


We are the fallen, We are the beaten


We are the abused


But with every mistake; Comes a lesson


With every moment; Experience gained


With this beating heart in my chest


With this fire running through my veins


I have been given valor


I have become a warrior


To give up; A contradiction


To what I claim; To be; What we are


Heroes, Titans, Avengers if you may


Of the night or of the day


Neverending I would say


We were built to last


We were given life and love


Never back down, Stand your ground


Be the one that takes the chance


Be the one to make the move


Be him her or them


You can do it


I believe in you


There’s a light in you


I can see it bright; Never dimmer


It wants you to spread your wings


And fly into the night


To be the person you were meant to me


A hero; A savior


To help, aid, and make others see


What they two can be


Be an inspiration; Fly to your wildest dreams


Dream to achieve


No one can tell you what you can or cannot be


All you need is is Belief


That belief becomes a spark that ignites


Ignites in your heart and send bolts through your veins


A rush you your head; To your brain


Turns to determination which gives you strength


And that majestic feeling


That pulse you are feeling


Is the hero in you


Is the soul of a lover in you


Let your creativity wander


Your intensity no one shall squander


I don’t believe it; I know it


I don’t think it; I feel it


And If I can; You can too


The light in you is the light in me


And in them


The truth is spoken


By the bold and glorious


No regrets; For we do what we can


We try with all our might


So that we and them and you


Can be something more


Something more than the ones who gave up when the storm got loud


When the lightning was all around


We stood our ground


For a chance to leave a mark


In this life, On this path


In this journey I have seen and loved


Never taken for granted


The moment and the chance


To make a difference


To clear the slate


Mistakes are better when you let them go


You live to learn


You are not defeated


This is your chance


To proclaim this night


And do what is right


To make your name mean something


What you want it to mean to you


You are a leader, a hero


You are that, and so much more


I see it in your eyes


And that is something you can not deny
