How I wish, upon the velvet sky,
to break free and,
like the eagle, fly,
Oh how I wish that at last,
someone hear my cry.
If only I could get away,
if only, even for just one day,
Oh how I pray, for that one day when I can finally say,
Say, that I'm a free man,
with no burden or concern,
Alone, to stride and wander,
solitarily, to recall and ponder,
Of what has been and what will be,
of all the things they've done to me.
This unmerciful thing called life,
that still stabs me like a knife,

For all their rules, for all their visions,
They have failed to see reality.
For all their hopes, for all their dreams,
They are trapped in their mentality.

How I wish, upon the azure sea,
to swim the oceans, to be free,
Like the eagle, so regal, so proud,
to fly away, to shriek aloud,
Fly and shriek so high above,
to soar along the gentle dove,
Free, serene, and without worry,
to fly away, to fly in glory.

How I wish, upon our ashen moon,
that all of this would happen soon,
If only I could fly like the eagle at last,
fly away, fly far and fast,
To my target, to my nest,
far away, away from the rest.

I see the future, so blazing and bright,
I see the eagle, in his flight,
Majestic, grand and great,
he flies away, so gracefully sedate.

For all his glory, for all his might,
It was with him that they sought a fight,
Because they chose to fight with he,
Now forever will he be free.

How I wish, for that one day,
When the time will come for me to be,
And only then I shall be free - that eagle shall be me.
