[Intro]
Am Fighting, living, dying Am For what? For freedom Am That's what which men have fought since time began
To be free
[Verse 1]
Am They've been making blanked statements, scaring everyone Am They've been making you feel like you never did belong F Yeah, he said, and she said, yeah, they say a lot F So many things, they just think you forgot Am Who you are, and what you do, and where you're coming from Am I just thought I could remind you with a simple song F Look at body language, can start to rebuff F To where we're using weapons, hatred, not love G Not you
[Chorus]
F Dm You are in the wilderness, looking for your own purpose Am And you became a butterfly, a butterfly G I knew you always would F They were throwing sticks and stones Dm Words can never break your bones Am You can spread your wings and fly, wings and fly G I knew you always would F Dm I knew you always would F Dm I knew there always was nothing wrong with being Am You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you
[Verse 2]
Am All you ever see on CNN are enemies Am Telling you to lose your individuality F Look, do this and do that, 'till you've lost your way F 'Till you need to fight or a means of escape Am They want you to stare into your screen and see yourself Am Blow smoke into your mirror till you imagine your own world F So don't let them catch you with lies and deceit F G They can't take your soul or your desire for freedom
[Chorus]
F Dm You are in the wilderness, looking for your own purpose Am And you became a butterfly, a butterfly G I knew you always would F They were throwing sticks and stones Dm Words can never break your bones Am You can spread your wings and fly, wings and fly G I knew you always would F Dm I knew you always would F Dm I knew there always was nothing wrong with being (yeah, yeah)
[Bridge]
Am You said I wanna be F I'm gonna be everything they said I couldn't be Am Am Everything that I said I would be when I picked up a pen and I started to speak F I hear the beat
My melody
F I just pour all my heart into these sheets F I cannot just be a star in the streets F Man, I knew what was different, I had that belief F Nowhere to live, nothing to eat F You were so hungry that you couldn't sleep Dm You couldn't breathe
I couldn't be
Dm All of this shit was happ'nin' to me F I would do drugs, I was a thief F Still on the run from the karma police Am Am You were the mission that was given to me by the powers to be
[Post-Bridge]
F Dm You are in the wilderness, looking for your own purpose Am And you became a butterfly, a butterfly G I knew you always would
[Chorus]
F Dm You are in the wilderness, looking for your own purpose Am And you became a butterfly, a butterfly G I knew you always would F They were throwing sticks and stones Dm Words can never break your bones Am You can spread your wings and fly, wings and fly G I knew you always would F Dm I knew you always would F Dm I knew you always would F Dm I knew there always was nothing wrong with being Am You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you
