The Butterfly Effect

I'm just a girl who's still a caterpillar Hoping one day people will see Will see my potential of breaking through the cocoon Waiting for that glamourous growth From inside my little transparent home Hoping I'll find something that's mine, After I break the barriers of my own Waiting for that amazing moment When I come out of the comfort zone Hoping they see my body has grown Hoping they see my life has shone Waiting to grab everything I can And not counting my days anymore Hoping they don't cut off my wings Hoping they don't tie me back down I'm just a girl who's now a butterfly Hoping that freedom is my forever throne
