[Verse 1]
You never listened when I called your name
Slept through battles
Laughed at my shame
Everyone said
“Kid
Just send him home”
But I saw fire under all that stone
[Pre-Chorus]
We burned through gyms and bitter nights
You finally turned to face the sky
[Chorus]
So I’ll let you go to grow
Even if it rips my heart in two
I choose you by letting go
What kind of trainer would I be
If I clipped the wings you earned from me?
This hurts like hell
But fly
Charizard
Fly for me
[Verse 2]
Claw marks carved in the old cave walls
Scars on my hands from reckless brawls
You stand taller than the kid you knew
I’m still small
But I’m proud of you
[Pre-Chorus]
Eyes locked
I see my own old fear
In the dragon staring through the tears
[Chorus]
So I’ll let you go to grow
Even if it rips my heart in two
I choose you by letting go
What kind of trainer would I be
If I clipped the wings you earned from me?
This hurts like hell
But fly
Charizard
Fly for me
[Bridge]
I throw the ball
It hits my palm (hey!)
One last time I say your name
But I’m the one who has to change
If you stay
We both stay small
So break the chain
Forget the call
I’ll walk on
You’ll burn a brighter dawn
[Chorus]
So I’ll let you go to grow
Even if it rips my heart in two
I choose you by letting go
What kind of trainer would I be
If I clipped the wings you earned from me?
This hurts like hell
But fly
Charizard
Fly for me
Fly
Charizard
Fly for me
