Morning light, silken dream take flight

As the darkness gives way to the dawn

You've survived,

now your moment has arrived

Now your dream has finally been born

Black butterfly sail across the waters

Tell your sons and daughters

what the struggle brings

Black butterfly set the skies on fire

Rise up even higher so the ageless

winds of time can catch your wings

Ooh...ooh...

While you slept, the promise was unkept

But your faith was as sure as the stars

Now you're free and the

world has come to see

Just how proud and beautiful you are

Black butterfly sail across the waters

Tell your sons and daughters

what the struggle brings

Black butterfly set the skies on fire

Rise up even higher so the

wind can catch your wings

Let the current lift your

heart and send it soaring

Write your timeless message

clear across the sky

So that all of us can read it

and remember when we need it

That a dream conceived

in truth can never die

Butterfly

Cause now that you're free

and the world has come to see

Just how proud and beautiful you are

Black butterfly sail across the waters

Tell your sons and your daughters

what the struggle brings

Black butterfly set the

skies, set them on fire

Rise up even higher so the ageless

winds of time can catch your wings

Fly

Butterfly

Yeah, yeah, yes
