Butterfly

Butterfly
"Butterfly"

(Verse 1)

A caterpillar crawls 
Through it all
Some say they move slowly
But they continue to go
They start to grow
They start to change 
Nothing looks the same
A different view 
For you to see
Something so carefree 
That’s us 
Yes we try 
The final result a butterfly

(Chorus)
Crawl and then soon 
They go in the cocoon 
They stay there and try
And then 
Finally they become a butterfly

(Verse 2)
The ending result 
We learn how to fly
We left the nest 
Saying goodbye 
It’s hard to leave 
Hard to turn 
Had to get out there and earn
Earn a way to do it all
We may stumble and even fall 
We may even go back and crawl
But at the end of the day ask yourself why
Does a caterpillar turn into a butterfly?

Chorus)
Crawl and then soon 
They go in the cocoon 
They stay there and try
And then 
Finally they become a butterfly

(Hook)
You can grow 
You can change
You can make it through the rain 
You can grow 
You can change
You can make it through the rain 
Only if you try
You can turn into a butterfly

(Chorus)
Crawl and then soon 
They go in the cocoon 
They stay there and try
And then 
Finally they become a butterfly
