Not yet a woman and certainly not a child But I was caught somewhere in the middle On that one Friday afternoon and I I remember Mama sayin', "It's time for you to go Go on out and change the world and become All that you have dreamed of" And as the tears that she was cryin' Fell from her face and shoulders, she said "Don't forget who you are, child Where you come from, where you're goin' 'Cause I'm always gonna be here for you Fightin' in your corner, so with every bow you take Take one for those that came before you" Go on now, fly, fly, butterfly Stand upon these two shoulders of mine Spread those wings of yours and fly Now I'm a woman and I've got a child And I just can't believe the day's gonna come When she tells me that it's time to soar And I don't know what I'm will do Not sure what I'm gonna tell her Maybe, don't forget who you are, child Where you come from, where you're going 'Cause I'm always gonna be here for you Fightin' in your corner, so with every bow you take Take one for those that came before ya Go on now, fly, fly, butterfly Stand upon these two shoulders of mine Spread those wings of yours and fly There is something sacred About the letting go of those we wanna hold So tightly to, but somehow we know they must move on On for those who have a dream to make our future better and On for those who will earn their wings In spite of wind and weather you tell 'em love is waiting there Forever in their corner, so with every bow they take They'll take one for those that came before them Go on now, fly, fly, butterfly Stand upon these two shoulders of mine Spread those wings of yours and fly Fly high, butterfly, but you'll never never know If you don't try Fly high, butterfly ...
