Tamia - Black Butterfly lyrics

[Verse 1] Morning light, silk and dreams, take flight As the darkness gives way to the dawn You survived, now your moment has arrived Now your dream has finally been born [Chorus] Black bu*terfly Sail across the waters Tell your sons and daughters What the struggle brings Black bu*terfly Set the skies on fire Rise up even higher So the ages of the tides can catch your wings [Verse 2] While you slept, the promise was unkept But your faith was at shore, as the stars Now you're free, and the world has come to see Just how proud, and beautiful you are [Chorus] Black bu*terfly Sail across the waters Tell your sons and daughters What the struggle brings Black bu*terfly Set the skies on fire Rise up even higher So the ages of the tides [Bridge] Let this current lift your heart and send it soaring Ride the timeless message clear across the sky So all of us can read it and remembering who made it That a dream conceived in truth can never die, can never die [Chorus] Black bu*terfly Sail across the waters Tell your sons and daughters What the struggle brings Black bu*terfly Set the skies on fire Rise up even higher So the ages of the tides can get your wings So the world can see how beautiful you are
