I'm leaving now to slay the foe,
fight my battles high and low.
I'm leaving mother, hear me go.
Please wish me luck today.
I've grown my wings,
It's my time to fly,
To seize my victories,
where they lie.
I'm going now mother
Please don't cry
Just leave me be to find my way
I want to see and touch. I want to hear.
Though there maybe many dangerous,
there are only a few fears
I'll smile my smiles,
I'll dry my own tears.
Please let me speak my say
I'm off to find my world and dreams
Carve my niche, and sew my seams.
Just remember though,
as I sail the many streams
I'll be missing and loving you
Each and every day
