Mamma told me not to waste my life
She alisema spread your wings my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep wewe at night
And if they give wewe shhh…
Then they can walk on by
My feet, feet can’t touch the ground
And I can’t hear a sound
But wewe 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

Mamma told me not to waste my life
She alisema spread your wings my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep wewe at night
And if they give wewe shhh…
Then they can walk on by

huh, huh…

I’m firing up on that runway
I know we’re gonna get their 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

Mamma told me not to waste my life
She alisema spread your wings my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep wewe at night
And if they give wewe shhh…
Then they can walk on by

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
wewe better keep on walking
I don’t wanna hear your talking boy
wewe better keep on walking
I don’t wanna hear your talking boy

Your words don’t mean a thing
I’m not listening
They’re just like water off my wings

Mamma told me not to waste my life
She alisema spread your wings my little butterfly
Don’t let what they say keep wewe at night
And they can’t detain you
Cos wings are made to fly
And we don’t let no body
Bring us down
No matter what wewe say
It won’t hurt me
Don’t matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly.
