[James Arthur] They’ve been making blanket statements scaring everyone They been making you feel like you never did belong Yeah, he said, and she said, yeah, they say a lot So many things they just think you forgot
Who you are and what you do and where you’re coming from I just thought I could remind you with a simple song No bad body language can start to rub off 'Til we’re choosing weapons and hatred, not love; not you
[James Arthur] You were in the wilderness Looking for your own purpose Then you became a butterfly, a butterfly I knew you always would
'Cause they were throwing stick and stones But words could never break your bones You just spread you wings and fly, your wings and fly I knew you always would I knew you always were I knew there always was nothing wrong with being… You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you...
[James Arthur] All you ever see on CNN are enemies Telling you to lose your individuality Look, do this and do that 'til you’ve lost your way 'Til you need a vice or a means of escape

[James Arthur] You were in the wilderness Looking for your own purpose And you became a butterfly, a butterfly I knew you always would
'Cause they were throwing sticks and stones But words could never break your bones You just spread your wings and fly, your wings and fly I knew you always would I knew you always were I knew there always was nothing wrong with being

[James Arthur] You were in the wilderness Looking for your own purpose And you became a butterfly, a butterfly I knew you always would
[James Arthur] You were in the wilderness (Yeah) Looking for your own purpose And you became a butterfly, a butterfly I knew you always were (Oh, I knew you always were)
'Cause they were throwing sticks and stones (They were throwing stick and stones) But words will never break your bones (Bones) You just spread your wings and fly, your wings and fly I knew you always would I knew you always were (I knew you always were) I knew you always were (I knew) I know there always was nothing wrong with being...
