Little black butterfly - I see you flying
Little black butterfly - I see you crying
Oh Little black butterfly - Don't you know your mine
Don’t you know you’re mine
I get ideas so dear to me it draws tears I can't believe
What i have seen over the years
And am busy as a bee sweet when murdering a beat
Free - keep it real - an easy breeze like a tree that grows and knows
What holds it up and flows
Faith in the above an inner spirit in the know
Hunting for the silence while am crouching like a lion
And im still defying lies that put you up against zion
Tell you you ain't got the power that can lift you up fighting
Reading finer writings that empower people like lightning
Bolts from the sky in rain showers that drown you
Mystery surrounds you
Who defend you like a marching army heading to slew
Anybody in the garden coming for you
I will remember your name though I’ll forget my own
Ill be willing to meet you where the lillies are growing
When you undo the chains, I wont recall anything
But Ill remember you child, Ill remember your name
Places, faces, grey days, Ill forget the sky and spaces
When I pass from this plain, ill forget about this game
Ill forget the wind and rain, the fallen race,
The grades, the shame but know this Ill remember your name
My little black butterfly, Ill remember everything you’ve been through
And all the hardship, Ill remember you
And i’ll raise you up on the last day
Don’t you know you’re mine, don’t you know it
