Intro:
     A minorAm
Fighting, living, dying

That's what which men have fought since time began

To be free

Verse 1:
A minorAm
They've been making blanked statements, scaring everyone
A minorAm
They've been making you feel like you never did belong
   FF
Yeah, he said, and she said, yeah, they say a lot
FF
So many things, they just think you forgot
A minorAm
Who you are, and what you do, and where you're coming from
A minorAm
I just thought I could remind you with a simple song
FF
Look at body language, can start to rebuff
  FF
To where we're using weapons, hatred, not love
  G+G
Not you


Chorus:
        FF              DmDm
You are in the wilderness, looking for your own purpose
         A minorAm
And you became a butterfly, a butterfly
 G+G
I knew you always would
          FF
They were throwing sticks and stones
        DmDm
Words can never break your bones
          A minorAm
You can spread your wings and fly, wings and fly
 G+G
I knew you always would
 FF        DmDm
I knew you always would
 FF         DmDm
I knew there always was nothing wrong with being
A minorAm
You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you

Verse 2:
A minorAm
All you ever see on CNN are enemies
A minorAm
Telling you to lose your individuality
   FF
Look, do this and do that, 'till you've lost your way
   FF
'Till you need to fight or a means of escape
A minorAm
They want you to stare into your screen and see yourself
   A minorAm
Blow smoke into your mirror till you imagine your own world
  FF
So don't let them catch you with lies and deceit
   FF                       G+G
They can't take your soul or your desire for freedom


Chorus:
        FF              DmDm
You are in the wilderness, looking for your own purpose
         A minorAm
And you became a butterfly, a butterfly
 G+G
I knew you always would
          FF
They were throwing sticks and stones
        DmDm
Words can never break your bones
          A minorAm
You can spread your wings and fly, wings and fly
 G+G
I knew you always would
 FF        DmDm
I knew you always would
 FF         DmDm
I knew there always was nothing wrong with being (yeah, yeah)


Bridge:
     A minorAm
You said I wanna be
       FF
I'm gonna be everything they said I couldn't be
A minorAm                    A minorAm
Everything that I said I would be when I picked up a pen and I started to speak
FF
I hear the beat

My melody
FF
I just pour all my heart into these sheets
FF
I cannot just be a star in the streets
    FF
Man, I knew what was different, I had that belief
FF
Nowhere to live, nothing to eat
FF
You were so hungry that you couldn't sleep
DmDm
You couldn't breathe

I couldn't be
DmDm
All of this shit was happ'nin' to me
FF
I would do drugs, I was a thief
FF
Still on the run from the karma police
A minorAm                        A minorAm
You were the mission that was given to me by the powers to be


Post-Bridge:

         A minorAm
And you became a butterfly, a butterfly

I knew you always would
