[02:39:18] Too long have you suppressed and hoarded your gifts out of sight.
[02:39:22] You are listening.
[02:39:25] This is your error while you are beam bright because
[02:39:30] beauty is in the flap of our wings.
[02:39:33] Butterfly effect is much more than it seems.
[02:39:37] Up and away we soar on energies that flow from we.
[02:39:42] Tickling the rainbow and the universe
[02:39:44] is part of our power.
[02:39:46] Tantalizing the places we flutter through.

[02:39:52] Energizing the flowers that grow within the star beings tending to their gardens.

[02:40:07] Love makes your heart flutter like our wings.
[02:40:10] Delicate yet strong.
[02:40:12] Iridescent cosmic glow.
[02:40:14] Embedded in the pigmentation of our being.
[02:40:17] Eyes can you see the depth of ours within the patterns from beyond the stars.
[02:40:23] Spirits of old and new.
[02:40:25] Power that is universal and new.
[02:40:27] Accept my butterfly kisses of energy.
[02:40:30] And let’s sail along making cosmic tales as we renew.
[02:40:35] Two, five.

[02:40:42] Pride before the fall.
[02:40:44] You think you have something.

[02:40:49] It comes from within.
[02:40:51] You want to be us?
[02:40:53] That’s not how you win.
[02:40:55] Focus on the power only you can cultivate.

[02:41:12] Do what we say.
[02:41:13] All cause we’re the spirit that you play.
[02:41:16] We elevate you higher than the danger takes.
[02:41:20] You are blinded by all that we are.
[02:41:22] We are the gifts spectacular.
[02:41:25] Understand you can be me too.
