Deniece Williams — Black Butterfly

[Verse 1] Morning light Silken dream take flight As the darkness gives way to the dawn You've survived Now your moment has arrived Now your dream has finally been born [Chorus] Black Butterfly Sail 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Black Butterfly Sail 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 [Bridge] Let the current lift your heart And send it soaring Write your timeless message clear across the skies So that all of can read it And remember when we need it That a dream conceived in truth can never die Butterfly [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause now you're free And the world has come to see Just how proud and beautiful you are [Chorus] Black Butterfly Sail across the waters Tell your sons and your daughters What the struggle brings Black Butterfly Set the skies, set them on fire Rise up even higher So the ageless winds of time can catch your wings [Outro] Fly Butterfly Yeah, yeah, yes Fly
