[Intro]
Flying kites, flying kites
Up above, we go
Flying kites, flying kites
Up above, we go

[Verse 1]
When I was younger, I used to play in rice fields
After the harvest, under the shade of big trees
Scorching heat that we try to ignore
Running around and playing so much more
When I was younger, I used to play in rice fields

[Chorus]
We were flying kites, up above, we go
All our dreams in flight
To wherever the wind blows
So pull on the strings against the strong wind
Don't lose your grip and steer your heart in
Flying kites, up above, we go

[Verse 2]
Then I got older, I went to work in the city
Pay check to pay check (Paycheck, paycheck)
Tell me, is this what life means?
Social pressure, we try to avoid (Social pressure, social pressure)
Overthinking got us all paranoid (Overthinking, overthinking)
But then I got older, I got to work in the city
[Chorus]
We are flying kites, up above, we go
Reach our dream so high
Whether it takes us far from home
So pull on the strings against the strong wind
Don't lose your grip and steer your heart in
Flying kites, up above, we go

[Bridge]
While my head's up on the clouds
I'll keep my feet down on the ground
While my head's up on the clouds
I'll keep my feet down on the ground
While my head's up on the clouds
I'll keep my feet down on the ground
While my head's up on the clouds
I'll keep my feet down on the ground

[Chorus]
We are flying kites, up above, we go
Reach our dream so high
Whether it takes us far from home
So pull on the strings against the strong wind
Don't lose your grip and steer your heart in
Flying kites, up above, we go
