Story Behind The Song
I wrote it for a musical of mine. The teenage girl is trying to find herself, and decides she wants to be on stage and nothing is going to stop her!
Song Description
It's about a young person striving to be what she wants to be - in this case she wants to be on stage. But it's more about overcoming her obstacles and reaching her goals! Nothing is going to stop her! It reminds me of a Barbra Streisand type song.

Lyrics
I'M GONNA FLY!
When I was just a little girl, I felt so trapped inside.
I used to grab a prop - anything - and I would come alive.
Now all I want to do is be on the stage where I can be someone besides little 'ole me
Ane I can fly away or live under the sea.
I'm gonna - I'm gonna fly to the top of the world.
I'm gonna - I'm gonna fly to the top of the world.
Just watch me spread my wings
Just watch me laugh and sing
Just watch me reach my hands up to the sky.
And if you say that I won't, I will!
And if you say that I can't, I can!
and if you say that I own't win that race, I'll start over again!
I'm gonna - I'm gonna fly to the top of the world.
I'm gonna - I'm gonna fly to the top of the world.
Just watch me spread my wings
Just watch me laugh and sing
Just watch me reach my hands up to the sky.
And if you say that I won't, I will!
And if you say that I can't, I can!
And if you say that I won't win that race, I'll start over
Again and again and again
and again and again and again and again!
