"Butterfly" lyrics

"Butterfly"

Only loved you 'cause I ain't loved myself
That version me no longer exists no more
Loving you was toxic for my health
I lost my colors trying to please another
Too unrecognizable to be in love
Blinded by it, couldn't see just who I was
Might sound pathetic but I don't regret it
Just getting ready for something better
It's better late than never

Wishing you the best but I can't stay down
Gotta let me go I'm moving up to higher ground
(I'm off the ground, I'm off the ground)
Look at me now
(Look at me now, I'm in the clouds)

I had to go inside myself to find a way out
I'm more beautiful and I'm much lighter without you
(I'm off the ground, I'm off the ground)
Without you
(Look at me now, I'm in the clouds)

'Cause you made me
So unsure
Insecure
Dim my light
But now I'm
So alive
Touch the sky
Butterfly

I can feel the difference
Makes no sense
What I've done
I've become
So alive
Touch the sky
Butterfly, fly
Fly

You gotta admit I'm glowing different
Know you probably miss it
I got something special now
This was the only way how
Had to get out of my shell
I had to change up for myself
You couldn't handle me now

Wishing you the best but I can't stay down
Gotta let me go I'm moving up to higher ground
(I'm off the ground, I'm off the ground)
Look at me now
(Look at me now, I'm in the clouds)

I had to go inside myself to find a way out
I'm more beautiful and I'm much lighter without you
(I'm off the ground, I'm off the ground)
Without you
(Look at me now, I'm in the clouds)

'Cause you made me
So unsure
Insecure
Dim my light
But now I'm
So alive
Touch the sky
Butterfly

I can feel the difference
Makes no sense
What I've done
I've become
So alive
Touch the sky
Butterfly, fly
Fly
