Butterfly

I was born to be free, I cut the chains from my wrist.
On a stage built for me, I breathe
Listen to the sound that surrounds me
Whisper to myself it was worth it

Released like a butterfly, beautiful into the sky
I was cocooned for so long
With every new tear a new life, every trouble a new victory
To become the beautiful butterfly I am today

A moment of growth was a moment of pain
The cocoon you built was enough to sustain
The weather of life forward and back
Foundation was laid, Spine so strong

Step by step the cocoon breaks
Step by step the colors were shown
Step by step Beauty again, beauty for ashes.
