------------------------------------------ ► Lyrics: (Spoken intro) Fighting, living, dying For what? For freedom? That for which men have fought since time began, to be free
They’ve been making blanket statements scaring everyone They been making you feel like you never did belong Yeah he said, and she yeah, yeah they say a lot So many things they just think you forgot
Who you are and what you do and where you’re coming from I just thought I could remind you with a simple song No bad body language can start to rub off Til we’re choosing weapons and hatred not love, not you
You were in the wilderness Looking for your own purpose Then you became a butterfly,a butterfly I knew you always would Cause they were throwing stick and stones But words could never break your bones You just spread you wings and fly, your wings and fly I knew you always would I knew you always were I knew there always was nothing wrong with being… (you)
All you ever see on CNN are enemies Telling you to lose your individuality Look, do this and do that til you’ve lost your way Til you need a vice or a means of escape
They want you to stare into your screen and see yourself Blow smoke into your mirror til you’re mentally unwell So don’t let them catch you with lies and deceit They can’t take your soul or desire for freedom (you)
You were in the wilderness Looking for your own purpose And you became a butterfly, a butterfly I knew you always would
Cause they were throwing sticks and stones But words could never break your bones You just spread your wings and fly, your wings and fly I knew you always would I knew you always were I knew there always was nothing wrong with being
Who said I wanna be, I’m gonna be Everything they said that I couldn’t be Everything that I said I would be when I picked up a pen and I started to speak I hear the beat, my melody I just pour all of my heart in these sheets I could not just be a star in the streets Man, I knew I was different I harboured belief
Nowhere to live, nothing to eat You were so hungry that you couldn’t sleep You couldn’t breathe, I couldn’t be All of this shit was happening to me I would do drugs, I was a thief Still on the run from the karma police You were the mission that’s given to me by the powers That be man there is a God
You were in the wilderness, looking for your own purpose And you became a butterfly, a butterfly I knew you always would
Refrain
