Beast or Butterfly
Most so-called friends wear a mask,
Maybe wolves in soft disguise.
Can’t trust a soul without a task,
Are they beasts or butterflies?
Will they fight for you or fly away,
When the night turns into day?
Refrain:
Beast or butterfly, which one are you?
Trying to cheat or acting true?
Well, whatever you choose to do,
I hope you don’t deny my truth.
Promises like fragile glass,
Shatter when the moments pass.
Smiles hide the sharpest claws,
Silent wars without a cause.
Who stands firm when storms arise?
Who just fades into the skies?
Refrain:
Beast or butterfly, which one are you?
Trying to cheat or acting true?
Well, whatever you choose to do,
I hope you don’t deny my truth.
In the mirror, what do you see?
A friend, a foe, or mystery?
When the mask falls to the ground,
Will your colors still be found?
Wings or claws — what will you show?
Soft embrace or ruthless blow?
Refrain:
Beast or butterfly, which one are you?
Trying to cheat or acting true?
Well, whatever you choose to do,
I hope you don’t deny my truth.
