Black Buttefly

Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis

Black Butterfly
You can do
Most anything
Your heart desires

Freedom comes
With understanding
Who you are

It's time to
Reclaim your place
Among the Stars
Spread your wings
And fly

Awakening
A genius has
Been asleep
Too long

A people with
A beauty rich
And strong

A heritage
That rates
Second to None

Original
Your qualities
Don't change them
To fit in

(Don't change
Don't change a thing)

Now that you're
On top
Just keep rising!

(Keep rising
Keep rising)

Experience
New life
Be born again

Black Butterfly
You can do
Most anything
Your heart desires

Freedom comes
With understanding
Who you are

(Gotta know who
Your are)

It's time to
Reclaim your place
Among the stars
Spread your wings
And fly

What's going on
Truth not revealed
Unless you chose
To see

Past generations
Lost in his-story
To hide our
Culture
And identity

Keep your Pride
You can't be
Another color
Butterfly

So when
You shine
Let everybody
See your Light

Cause you know
Outa sight means
Outa mind
Spread your wings
Fly

Here we go
Here we go
Here we go
Here we go

Ooh
(Black Butterfly)
Black Butterfly
(Black Butterfly)
Black Butterfly
(Spread your wings
And Fly)

You gotta know
Who you are
Ah yeah!

(Black Butterfly)
Black Butterfly

(Spread your wings
And Fly)

Black Butterfly
You can do
Most anything
Your heart desires

Freedom comes
With understanding
Who you are

It's time to
Reclaim your place
Among the stars
Spread your wings
And fly
