Trapped inside an ugly life
Needed some wings to make it right
Had to fly away real soon
Busted out and headed straight
Nothing can get in my way
I'm the prettiest thing in the sky
Higher, higher than I'm gone
Cause this is the way I want to live
All the colors of the world
Sick of being a black and white girl
Busted through the atmosphere
Up on top is where I'll stay
Higher, higher than I'm gone
Cause this is the way I want to live
Everybody knows that I can't be told
Change my life so suddenly just like "I'm free"
Now that I know that life is gold
I can always be strong negativity is gone
Took the right and left behind the wrong
Higher, higher than I'm gone
Cause this is the way I want to live
