Verse 1
I see you raise your first shoots,
Green tips of life, pushing upwards from the roots,
You a small triumph in the land of reproofs,
In the grime you shine like new
They deem dreams to dangerous to pursue,
But you routinely stand supremely absolute,
I view this landscape and marvel at you,
Clowns and jokers, have tried to choke the,
Life away but you continue on resolute,
Your slender stem cracked through the dirt roof
To leave paths of light for others to climb through,
And when you bloom, the beauty of your baby blues,
Makes the whole world stop, just to take in the view,
You a rose of pure complexion and hue,
Refined by the residence of perfection within you,
So who, can keep your splendor renewed?
Only love, only grace, only you.
Chorus 1
I was hoping that,
Maybe we could take the time to grow and that,
We could reach the sunshine,
One flower and a strong vine, hand in hand intertwined
Metamorphosizing, in an unban environment,
Until you’re fully emerging, ear is like a tyrant,
The city seem violent, don’t stay cooped up in your room,
You’re a butterfly and you lie in your cocoon,
For a season, believing that you’ll climb out from your chrysalis,
The meataphor is common but still its so infectious,
The perspective getsclear from up above,
But down here its gridlocked, caterpillar, slug,
The process of watching you as agapes unlocking you,
Is inspiring, reminds me of what I got to do,
There’s a lot to pursue, I’m proud of your development,
You’d rather soar elegant then be pop culture relevant,
What I’ve said, I meant, that’s why this is for you,
Persist through and fly up to where the sky is blue,
When you flap your wings, it attracts me to you,
Pretty soon you’ll be looking back to see how far you flew.
Chorus 2
I was hoping that,
Maybe you could take me to the sky and back,
We could reach the sunshine,
Butterfly fly over time,
Your colours stay always on my mind
