Ascension, a journey to the stars Leaving behind our home and past We ascend to a new world Below fades away, a distant memory As we rise higher and higher, our spirits are free The air grows thin, the view expands We reach for the sky, our hearts full of hope We are weightless and free, unbound by gravity Our spirits soar, our stories untold We are reborn, in this moment of ascension We are more than just flesh and bone As we ascend, to a new beginning, to new heights, to new friends
