Fight For The Wings
Unicorn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She stands in front of me
Smiling
Listening to my tale
The Reaper
And judges what you have done
Living
Tell her you deserve
The reward

She'll confer with the still
And listen to the storm
She'll confer with the still
And listen to the sea

Fight for the wings
Till the time you receive
The gift to be free

In life we've got to fight
Stand up and
A hero you'll become
Forever

Remember you my words
And listen to the storm
Remember you my words
And listen the sea

Fight for the wings
Till the time you receive
The gift to be free
Fight for the wings
To deserve in the sky
The secret of flying

Fight for the wings
'cause the battle begins
When you start to live
Fight for the wings
'cause the fight's just begun
And there's no return

Fight…
The gift to be free
You've got to be free




The battle begins
And become a king…
