Headfirst

I will be heavy like stone to hold you down
Weightless like wings to lift you from the ground
I will be flesh and bone, fragile and frail
And I will be the wind when it’s time to set sail

Headfirst, kicking and screaming
Naked and afraid into this world we’re thrown
You might feel out of place sometimes
But you’ll never be alone

Beneath these petals, thorns
They’ll try to buy away your hopes and dreams
But all that glitters isn’t what it seems
It’s never enough to be strong be brave and smart
Smart enough to be afraid brave enough to lead with your heart

Headfirst, kicking and screaming
Naked and afraid into this world we’re thrown
You might feel out of place sometimes
But you’ll never be alone
