Let Me Fly Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna live without living
I don't wanna wear a disguise
I don't wanna keep on pretending
Just living a lie
Every day the pressure is building
Every night I'm howling at the moon
Feeling like the wolves are just closing in
What can I do?

[Chorus]
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go

[Verse 2]
None of us is born to be prisoners
But some of us end up in a cell
What if we were born to be a witness
Living is the only way to tell

[Bridge]
Funny thing is
Make a wish and
Hope it counts for something
Standing here
And I'm looking down
Not afraid to fall

[Chorus]
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how high I can go
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go
And let me dream, let me dream, let me dream
I can be who I wanna be
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how high I can go
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
See how far I can go

[Chorus]
So let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly
If I don't try, I will never know
Let me fly, let me fly, oh, let me fly

None of us is born to be prisoners
But some of us end up in a cell
What if we were born to be a witness
Living is the only way to tell

Funny thing is
Make a wish and
Hope it counts for something
Standing here
And I'm looking down
Not afraid to fall

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
