Fly Free
A Tribute to Dr. Maya Angelou
Fly free of care
Lift your wings toward the sky
Stretch them high
Cause of you we have lifted up our eyes
Cause of you we have soften our hearts
Pain has been eased in your arms and words
The turn of history has been lightened
The times has changed watching you
It's pages have been completed
Your wall of writings avail us all as heaven beckons
Your shield was our fortune
Into the sun and beyond the moon
Fly high, fly free sister friend fly home
