Lyrics
The things I go
The challenges I face
Through to make you feel
To ensure your emotional experience
Make you see
To make you perceive
to make you believe
To make you have faith
The things I need to make me strong,
The elements I require for strength
make me belong,
To make me feel connected
that give me hope to move on
That provide optimism to move forward
You say that I’m an over thinker,
You describe me as someone who overthinks
problem maker,
A trouble creator
practice shaker
A disruptor in practice
this dead ending,
This situation with no resolution
it’s just something,
It's an issue I can't comprehend
I can’t get my mind around
A challenge that baffles me
Because I’m a dreamer, a believer, and optimistic fortune seer, don’t shoot down the stars I see, if you’d see them you’ll be like me
Expressing qualities of being a dreamer and optimist
Don’t clip my wings like a bird I’m free to explore the world and the make believe
Requesting not to limit freedom and imagination
With a will there’s a way, the time is today
Emphasizing that with determination, one can achieve
Butterflies need air to glide
Using butterflies as a metaphor for delicate aspirations
If I had been somebody else,
Contemplating the impact of being a different person
would you be happy or lost in yourself
Wondering if happiness depends on identity
Something’s I just can’t understand,
Expressing confusion about certain situations
Where this is going?
Questioning the direction of a relationship
Feels like we’re sinking in sand
Feeling a sense of sinking or instability
To take me for my mistakes
Asking for acceptance despite mistakes
My behavior it's my DNA.
Connecting behavior to innate characteristics
This dead ending
Reiterating the unresolved nature of a situation
it’s just something
Expressing difficulty in understanding
I can’t get my mind around
Repeating the challenge that perplexes the mind
Because I’m a dreamer
Reiterating dreamer and optimistic qualities
a believer
Emphasizing belief in positive outcomes
and optimistic fortune seer
Encouraging not to dismiss hopeful visions
Don’t shoot down the stars I see
Warning against discouraging personal aspirations
if you’d see them you’ll be like me/if you could see you’d be like me
Highlighting the transformative effect of shared visions
Don’t clip my wings like a bird I’m free to explore the world and the make believe
Repeating the plea for freedom and imagination
With a will there’s a way, the time is today
Stressing the importance of seizing the present
Butterflies need air to glide
Using butterflies as symbols of fragile dreams
Butterflies need air to glide.
Reiterating the need for air for butterflies to glide
Butterflies need air to glide.
Repeating the importance of air for butterflies
Oh Butterflies need air to glide.
Emphasizing the essential role of air for butterflies
Butterflies need air to glide.
Stressing the necessity of air for butterflies
Butterflies need air to glide.
Highlighting the fundamental requirement of air for butterflies
Butterflies need air to glide.
Emphasizing the critical need for air for butterflies to glide
