Song Structure:



keyboard intro
Intro riff
verse
I'm walking the streets and i hear what you say
Advicing me tilling me how to play
I know your name it's called Mr.Mean
One thing i've learned you don't know beans

corus
High i fly
I touch the sky
Far above the frozen minds
You can't kill my dreams
You can't kill my spirit
I was born to be free

Intro riff
I walk to my own song
Every day the power grows stronger in me
I walk to my own song
Head up proud
I'm the master of my own destiny

verse
You think you know what is better for me
Holding me lectures of how i should be
Shrugging my shoulders i leave you behind
Anyway i look at it you are blind

corus
High i fly
I touch the sky
Far above the frozen minds
You can't kill my dreams
You can't kill my spirit
I was born to be free
