Find a place to rest Be done with discontent Sometimes, I wish I could be A little more like my father As steady as a lion Or a little more like my mother As patient as the sky I'm more like a hummingbird With a restless heartbeat Every time I get where I'm goin' The first thing I wanna do is leave ♪ Wish I could say I've never flown away From somebody that needed me (somebody that needed me) But wings can't slow down When they're drownin' out All the fear inside of me Wish I was like my father As steady as a lion Or a little more like my mother As patient as the sky I'm more like a hummingbird With a restless heartbeat Every time I get where I'm goin' The first thing I wanna do is leave
