Black Butterfly

Williams Deniece

Morning light, silken dream to flight 
As the darkness gave way to dawn 
You've survived, now your moment has arrived 
Now your dream has finally been born 

Black Butterfly, sailed across the waters 
tell your sons and daughters 
what the struggle brings 
Black Butterfly, set the skies on fire 
rise up even higher 
so the ageless winds of time can catch your wings 

ooh...ooh 

While you slept, the promise was unkept 
But your faith was as sure as the stars 
Now you're free, and the world has come to see 
Just how proud and beautiful you are 

Let the current lift your heart and send it soaring 
Write the timeless message clear across the sky 
So that all of can read it and remember when we need it 
That a dream conceived in truth can never die 
Butterfly 

Cause now that you're free and the world has come to see 
Just how proud and beautiful you are 

Fly 
Butterfly 
Yeah, yeah, yes 
Fly
