Текст песни Black Butterfly - Deniece Williams

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

Black butterfly, sailed 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

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

Black butterfly, sailed 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 wind can catch your wings

Let the current lift your heart and send it soaring
Write the timeless message clear across the sky
So that all of us can read it and remember when we need it
That a dream conceived in truth can never die
Butterfly

'Cause now you're free, and the world has come to see
Just how proud and beautiful you are

Black butterfly, sailed across the waters
Tell your sons and your 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

Fly
Butterfly
Yeah, yeah, yes
Fly
