Butterfly John Michael Howell

[Verse 1]
You've been through many stages of your life
First the ground, now a cocoon up high
And as the days have gone by and time started to fly
You felt dead, but I promise your time has just arrived

[Pre-Chorus]
Spread your hopes, don't let them die
There's more to you than meets the eye

[Chorus]
It's okay, butterfly, you don't have to fear the night
Spread your wings, hold them high, you may fall, but you won't die
When the voices from the ground say you're too high come back down
Tell them "I don't know about you, but I was born to fly"

[Post-Chorus]
To fly

[Verse 2]
It's not been easy knowin' you will fly
When all that you can do is crawl and hide
But it's okay, your season on the ground, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Has helped you become so much stronger now

[Pre-Chorus]
Spread your hopes, don't let them die
There's more to you than meets the eye
