lyrics

I’m a pebble in a slingshot launching into space
Flying through the air
I can almost taste it on my tongue
A grand celebration
I have finally won
Nothing really changes

Now I see the target, painted on the wall
A tiny speck of light, nothing more
I don’t see the goal post as I still kick the ball
With this tiny speck of light, I know I won’t fall

I am growing taller every single day
In this game of snakes and ladders, anyone can play
No place to settle lay claim to the ground
So i’ll be a hero wherever I land

Now I see the target, painted on the wall
A tiny speck of light, nothing more
I don’t see the goal post as I still kick the ball
With this tiny speck of light, I know I won’t fall

I am climbing mountains and breaking down walls
Shattering the ceiling, settling the score
For all the flowers blooming late in the fall
The summer time babies still learning to crawl

Now I see the target, painted on the wall
A tiny speck of light, nothing more
I don’t see the goal post as I still kick the ball
With this tiny speck of light, I know I won’t fall

Now I see the target, painted on the wall
A tiny speck of light, nothing more
I don’t see the goal post as I still kick the ball
With this tiny speck of light, I know I won’t fall

I know I won’t fall
I know I won’t fall
