Feathered friends freely fly

Over the ocean so grand.

Legend has it an elder

Would play Earth, Wind, & Fire

Every morning.

Feathered friends would flock

To sit upon the stoop and listen.

Keep your head to the sky.

Wings wide and proud are stretched

As a sign of respect before

Our feathered friends take flight.

Clawed feet push against the concrete

And thus freedom take its first steps

Toward the sky without fear.

Keep your head to the sky.

Legend has it Earth, Wind, & Fire

Were feathered friends reborn

To show the people of the world

They too can fly.

Simply, keep your head to the sky.
