lyrics
Born and gone in July, white butterfly white butterfly
Said it a thousand times white butterfly white butterfly
Nobody go outside white butterfly white butterfly
So did you find the light white butterfly white butterfly
Sister sister sister(wake up wake up wake up) where have you been
Sister sister sister what have you seen
Mother why can't you see white butterfly white butterfly
Mother my body's free white butterfly white butterfly
You didn't make a sound white butterfly white butterfly
Mother what have you found white butterfly white butterfly
Sister sister sister(wake up wake up wake up) where have you been
Sister sister sister what have you seen
Wake up wake up wake wake up wake up
Did you see did you see did you see the light
Are you with Are you with Are you with the light
Did you see did you see did you see the stars
