Scott Stapp - Black Butterfly Lyrics
Official




Push and pull
Black and white
Count it one, two, three, we die
Lift you higher
Cocoon down
Build a wall just to break it down
(I'm breaking out)

Born to fight
Born to run with lions
Fly, black butterfly
It's your time
Time will not resist this, fly
Fly, black butterfly

Twist and turn
The light is so blinding
Time to spread your wings and fly
Into the heavens
Up off the ground
See so clearly looking down
(I'm breaking out)

Born to fight
Born to run with lions
Fly, black butterfly
It's your time
Time will not resist this, fly
Fly, black butterfly

(Fight or flight, black butterfly)
Fly, fly, black butterfly
Fly, fly, black butterfly

Born to fight
Born to run with the lions
Fly, black butterfly
It's your time (it's your time)
Time will not resist this, fly
Fly, black butterfly

Fly, fly, black butterfly
Fly, fly, black butterfly
Fly, fly, black butterfly
Fly, fly, black butterfly
