Spread Your Wings
A beautiful creature was held back by a glass wall;
It was afraid to fly, afraid it might fall.
God spilled the colors of the rainbow onto its wings,
God created it for love, for the joy it brings.
But the lid of deception holds it back inside,
And the beautiful creature is ashamed and it hides.
You see, the lid was an illusion in the butterfly’s mind,
It wasn’t able to see the truth, became blind.
But then one day it found the faith to give it a try,
It spread out its wings, and began to fly.
