I Believe I Can Fly

On the ground
After I jump up in the air I start to fly
Past the treetops
Into the falling rain
Among the clouds
In the sky.

Down I fall
Through the clouds
Following the rain
Away from the sun
Towards the ocean
Below the surface
Through the salt water
Past the fish
Away from the hungry looking shark...
