The Butterfly Remains Songtext
von Collie Buddz

Will you face it, your reflection
Even when you′re in your darkest hour?
Will you greet it with acceptance?
Let your weakness be your superpower

Every aspect (every aspect), every reflex (every reflex)
Every bruise and every broken bone
All the tragic (all the tragic), all the neglect (all the neglect)
Became your walls and then you called it home

Ever since you were a little child
You had a dream you held deep down inside your heart
Now you've grown into a grown-up and forgot your dreams
And piece by piece, they picked you apart

But I won′t let them (I won't let them)
No, I won't let them (no, I won′t let them)
Steal our hopes, steal our dreams, steal our youth
No, I won′t let them (I won't let them)
I could never let them (I could never let them)
Twist and toxify the truth, oh


I will go where the wind blows
Where I′m needed most
Follow the whispers of the gods and ghosts
Leave this broken world behind me

And I will be
Deeper than the deepest, darkest sea
And I will need no one to rescue me
Jah, Jah love will always find me (yeah, uh, uh)

When you're young, you′re always looking to the future (looking to the future)
You get old, you tend to dwell upon the past (upon the past)
The only thing that's really real is this here moment (this here moment)
So while you′re living, try to make it last

Many will take the easy road, many more will run and hide
Many will fall victim to ego, arrogance, and pride
Many would rather die than face the darkness deep within
Many are called, but few are chosen

I will go where no roads are paved
No walls between
And witness things no man has ever seen
Leave fear and failure behind me, yeah, yeah


The chrysalis cracked when the sun turned black
Down came the rain and washed away the blame
Let go of your pain, only the butterfly remains (oh)
The chrysalis cracked when the sun turned black
Down came the rain and washed away the blame
Let go of your pain, only the butterfly remains
Only the butterfly remains, yeah
Only the butterfly remains, oh

Oh, I'm evolving
I'm changing
I′m breaking free
Yeah, I′m evolving (I'm evolving)
I′m changing (I'm changing)
But I′m still me

Oh, I'm evolving (I′m evolving)
I'm changing (I'm changing)
I′m breaking free (I′m breaking free)
And I'm evolving (I′m evolving)
I'm changing (I′m changing)
But I'm still me
