Wings (Glee Cast Version)

Mama told me not to waste my life

She said, spread your wings my little butterfly

Don't let what they say keep you up at night

And if they give you hell then they can walk on by

My feet, feet can't touch the ground

And I can't hear a sound

But you just keep on running up your mouth, yeah

Walk, walk on over there

'Cause 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

Mama told me not to waste my life

She said, spread your wings my little butterfly

Don't let what they say keep you up at night

And they can't detain you

'Cause wings are made to fly

No, we don't let nobody bring us down

No matter what you're say it won't hurt me

Don't matter if I fall from the sky

These wings are made to fly

Hey, hey

I'm climbing up on that runway

I know I'm gonna get there 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

Mama told me not to waste my life

She said, spread your wings my little butterfly

Don't let what they say keep you up at night

And they can't detain you

'Cause wings are made to fly

No, we don't let nobody bring us down

No matter what you're say it won't hurt me

Don't matter if I fall from the sky

These wings are made to fly

I don't need no one saying

Hey, hey, hey, hey

I don't hear no one saying

Hey, hey, hey, hey

You better keep on walking

I don't wanna hear your talking, boy

You 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 on my wings

Mama told me not to waste my life

She said, spread your wings my little butterfly

Don't let what they say keep you up at night

And they can't detain you

'Cause wings are made to fly

No, we don't let nobody bring us down

No matter what you're say it won't hurt me

Don't matter if I fall from the sky

These wings are made to fly

And we don't let nobody bring us down

No matter what you're say it won't hurt me

Don't matter if I fall from the sky

These wings are made to fly
