Unstoppable

By Jeremiah Raber 

 

As I watch the eagle, soar on wings of high,
So oft I have to wonder what it would be like,
Just to spread my wings and soar up into the sky.
Never more to worry, never more to cry.
All the pain from the past would be gone in a blast.

(chorus)
That’s when… I look in the mirror and look into my eyes,
I notice the way I think about never giving up and smile,
the hurt I just can't disguise.
But I think if I spread my wings and fly it’ll make my life worthwhile.
Why is it so hard for me to realize, that if I Spread My Wings And Fly,
and I Never Give Up, I’m unstoppable.

No more to live in pain, forget about rejection.
Grab the ones I love, and hold them close to my heart.
Take the lessons that I’ve learned, one that I'll mention,
Hold the loved ones near, never to be apart.
But the pain that is here brings on a great big tear.

(chorus)
That’s when… I look in the mirror and look into my eyes,
I notice the way I think about never giving up and smile,
the hurt I just can't disguise.
But I think if I spread my wings and fly it’ll make my life worthwhile.
Why is it so hard for me to realize, that if I Spread My Wings And Fly,
and I Never Give Up, I’m unstoppable.

The time is here, the time is now. Never to look back,
I’ll always march on, I’m always looking forward.
It’s time to open my wings, and cut me some slack,
I’m leaving this place, always moving onward.
Never more to worry, no more in a hurry.

(chorus)
That’s when… I look in the mirror and look into my eyes,
I notice the way that I’m never giving up and I smile,
the joy I just can't disguise.
Because I know if I spread my wings and fly, my life is so worthwhile.
that’s why it’s easy for me to realize, that if I Spread My Wings And Fly,
and I’ll Never Give Up, I’m unstoppable.
