Butterfly
Danny Darko feat Jova Radevska Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It feels like a hundred years, a hundred years
The moonless sky in the night, white knuckle holding tight to
One way of looking at the world
And some say flying's for the birds
But freedom doesn't come from not being afraid
And I'm terrified, but I'm soldering on, soldering on
Like a Butterfly just being born, just being born.
And I'm terrified, but I'm soldering on, soldering on
Like a Butterfly just being born, just being born.
No hope, no fear
Didn't think I could make it here, make it here
The truest version of me, 'cause there isn't meant to be
Just one way of looking at the world
And some say flying's for the birds
But Freedom doesn't come from not being afraid
Freedom comes from choice, the choice that we have made.
And I'm terrified, but I'm soldering on, soldering on
Like a Butterfly just being born, just being born.
And I'm terrified, but I'm soldering on, soldering on
Like a Butterfly just being born, just being born.
No hope, no fear, No hope, ho fear
Didn't think I could make it here
one way of looking at the world
And some say flying's for the birds
But Freedom doesn't come from not being afraid
Freedom comes from choice
"Butterfly" by Danny Darko ft. Jova Radevska is a powerful song that talks about overcoming fear, taking control of one's own life, and discovering one's true self. The lyrics talk about the transformation of a butterfly, which can be seen as a metaphor for the transformation of a person's life. The line "No hope, no fear" suggests that the singer is in a state of complete surrender, no longer afraid of what the future holds. It feels like they have already lived a hundred years, and they are exhausted from the journey.
The song emphasizes that there is no single way to see the world. While some people may see flying as reserved for birds, there is no reason why humans should not aim for the sky as well. The true path to freedom lies in embracing fear, making choices that allow one to take control of their life, and breaking free from limitations imposed by others.
The chorus of the song contains the line "And I'm terrified, but I'm soldering on, soldering on like a Butterfly just being born, just being born." This line is a reference to the painful process that caterpillars go through in order to transform into butterflies. Their struggle is a metaphor for the pain of growth and transformation that humans must also endure. However, like a butterfly, humans too can emerge from that struggle stronger, freer, and more beautiful.
