And if I ever had a wish in the whole world 
I would’ve listened to my brother 
When he spoke to me 
And I never would’ve played with my conscience 
And it feels well worth in [bad word] 

But you gave me wings and I used them 
I used them I used them on my youth 
And you gave me wings and I used them 
I used them and I don’t wanna lose them 

Now I found my feet count to 1, 2, 3 
And I’m taking off tonight, now I’m free 
As I walk my feet on the cold dark green 
And I and I and I 

I can feel my dreams when I’m in my city 
I follow my needs for my, for my city 
We’re going ... dream in my, in my city 
And that’s where I’ll stay 
And that’s where I’ll stay 
In my city 
 [bad word] down the streets in my new town 
With the lights blinding, near my halfway down 
I think I'd get that jealousy and people’s thunder 
But the folks back home I’ll make them vouch 

You gave me wings and I used them 
I used them I used them on my youth 
Yeah you gave me wings and I used them 
I used them I don’t wanna lose them 
I don’t wanna lose them 
I can feel my dreams when I’m in my city 
I follow my needs for my, for my city 
We’re going ... dream in my, in my city 
And that’s where I’ll stay 
And that’s where I’ll stay 
In my city 

Shoulders ache for want of wings 
My city shakes, the fear in me 

I can feel my dreams when I’m in my city 
I follow my needs for my, for my city 
We’re going ... dream in my, in my city 
And that’s where I’ll stay 
And that’s where I’ll stay 
In my city
