Wings

Mama told me not to waste my life
She said: Spread your wings, my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep you up at night
And if they give you sh, then they can walk on by

My feet, feet can’t touch the ground
And I can’t hear a sound
But you just keep on running up your mouth, yeah
Walk, walk on over there
‘Cos I’m too fly to care, oh yeah
Your words don’t mean a thing, I’m not listening
Keep talking, all I know is

Mama told me not to waste my life
She said: Spread your wings, my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep you up at night
And they can’t detain you
‘Cos wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won’t hurt me
Don’t matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly

I’m firing up on that runway
I know we’re gonna get there someday
But we don’t need no ready, steady, go, no
Talk, talk turns into air
And I don’t even care, oh yeah
Your words don’t mean a thing, I’m not listening
Keep talking, all I know is

Mama told me not to waste my life
She said: Spread your wings, my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep you up at night
And they can’t detain you
‘Cos wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won’t hurt me
Don’t matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly

I don’t need no one saying hey, hey, hey, hey
I don’t hear no one saying hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
You'd better keep on walkin'
I don’t wanna hear your talking, boy’d
You'd better keep on walkin'
I don’t wanna hear your talking, boy’d
Your words don’t mean a thing, I’m not listening
They’re just like water off my wings

Mama told me not to waste my life
She said: Spread your wings, my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep you up at night
And they can’t detain you
‘Cos wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won’t hurt me
Don’t matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly

And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won’t hurt me
Don’t matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly
