I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day (Night and day)
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly. (R.Kelly)
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day (Night and day)
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly. (R.Kelly)
At the youth prison, we had some difficult kids. What a euphemistic observation. One of the hardest kids (Kingdom of Heaven, p.158) was always angry. He had reason to be but as is so often the case, there was very little I could do about any of his issues. Space Jam had hit the movie screen and the kids loved it. In desperation, I bought the CD and some portable players. I let the kids earn time to listen. Ben absolutely loved the CD. He would work to get time and then sing along. It’s been more than a decade-I think of him almost everyday. When I swim, I take a nose dive and sing along-I believe I can soar-I see me running through that open door. I beg God to let some doors be open for every one of them.
