Engines up, I feel the frame shake
Sky opens wide and I don't break
Runway heat and the warning glow Check the steel and the fuel
lines flow Tower fades when the thunder starts I carry fire with
a steady heart Clouds split back from the nose cone line Every
second says the edge is mine Hands stay calm when the red
lights call I was built for the climb through it all Lock
it in, hold the turn Feel the whole horizon burn No retreat,
no delay I was born to lead the way Higher,
higher, cut a line through the blue Fire,
fire, I know what I'm here to do Wings of thunder,
never
falling out of view Higher,
higher, bring the fight and break on through Radar sings and the
cockpit shakes I read the turn that the danger makes Flash below
and the hard sparks rise I keep my aim with a level
mind Pressure climbs but my breath stays clean Chasing down what I
barely see
Steel and nerve in a burning dive Push ahead till the target
breaks alive
If I fade, let it be in flight If I fall,
I go down in light
Till the dawn takes the black away
I will hold to the line and stay
Higher,
higher, cut a line through the blue Fire,
fire, I know what I'm here to do Wings of thunder,
never falling out of view Higher,
higher, bring the
fight and break on through Sky behind me,
smoke below
Still alive and ready to go (oh) (yeah)
