@dmiraie Some vocalists can sell those kinds of lyrics, though most of us aren't lucky enough. Do you include yourself in the strongest and smartest? I think you've completely missed the point of this video.

leave behind a trail to paint your picture in the sky/ they'll never take away your dream to fly ??
right there, the artist only has ONE picture to paint, instead of multiple accomplishments.
i have a clever lyric
leave behind some trails to reveal your pictures in the sky/
they'll never confiscate your dreams, so fly
this way you get away from cliche phrasing and the lyrics issue more belief to the listeners.
as you can see, there's more ambition and expectation established :)
