onyvio - flight of the roses كلمات الأغنية

[intro]
i remember as a child my father once told me
“stand up for your dreams and defend your goals boldly”
i could hear it in his voice, that feeling of regret
his one true dream always involved flying a jet
he married my mom and attempted to forget
i told him “dad one day i’m gonna be a pilot”
it was like headlights, the way that his eyes lit
he sat back and chuckled, my notion was hilarious
the last thing he’d ever want to do is live vicarious

[hook 1]
he’ll never know, i read his mind like hieroglyphics
asked me where my money went but never gave specifics
saved up for months just to buy my dad a flight
found an ex-german pilot and the plane was right

[verse 1]
i woke dad up at 6 with the morning air crisp
he rolled out of bed like he had a slipped disc
i told him man i’ve got your back it’s time to earn your wings
you’ve worked your whole life and it’s time to live like kings

we arrived at the airfield at 7
he looked like he was in heaven
i introduced him to the german
my dad took in every word like a sermon
he even knew the fuel we were burnin’

[hook 2]
he’ll never know, i read his mind like hieroglyphics
somethings in life are complex like astrophysics
regardless there’s no barrier on what you can achieve
as long as you ask you have a chance to receive

[verse 2]
we hopped in the plane and i sat in the backseat
pops started it up and he knew how to taxi
i can’t lie i didn’t know how i could trust
a small flimsy plane that could have been bought from toys-r-us
mr. pilot swore he’d never seen someone so natural
a newcomer comfortable in a two thousand-pound capsule

before i could blink the wheels had left the ground
i felt my heart float on waves like ultrasound
i wondered how my dad felt, living his dreams
if only he had told me, it wasn’t all that it seems

[hook 3]
i never knew, i was translating wrong
which is the exact reason why i wrote this song
i tried to fulfill his dreams, he didn’t himself
if only i had known, it was all cause of his health

[verse 3]
there’s honestly no medium that could describe
the expression on his face that was oh so alive
it’s like his mood rose with the altitude
an emotional food that could feed the most ravenous
until i realized it was false hope like miscarriages
he started to break down, crying on the plane
it was at this point i had thought he’d gone insane
i couldn’t understand what was the issue
how lifelong dreams could just be torn like a tissue

[outro]
banking towards the runway ready to land
as the ground grew i grew to understand
my dad told me something i couldn’t ignore
there’s a reason that he’s never flown before
he couldn’t join the air force with spinal stenosis
you’re never searching for thorns when you reach for the roses
i thought he turned down the chance so he could raise me
it turns out it had nothing to do with a baby

after hopping out of the c-ckpit i’ve never been complacent
it’s a shame the way he and i think is adjacent…
