This song is sang from the perspective of Michelle, the alter ego and woman behind Davina Michelle to the artist Davina. Her actual name is Michelle Davina Hoogendorn and Davina is her second name from her grandmother who always referred to her as a butterfly of her always jumping all over the place because of her ADD syndrome. Which she herself doesn't sees as something negative but just a characteristic as a part of her. The song is about the internal struggle she sometimes feels as an ordinary girl living in the hectic world of the entertainment industry and glitter and glamour and the obligation to perform even when she "Michelle" sometimes doesn't feel like it, she still has the responsibility to be there for her band and team behind the artist ( like 30 people ) around her. Luckily her boyfriend, the drummer and producer of the band protects her and makes sure she is always safe from the bad influences of the industry and they only do the things she really wants to do. It is probably also the reason why she will never be world famous because we all know you will have to sell your soul to the dark side to become world famous and Michelle is a sweet and pure soul that cares about her family and even still sees her high school friends rather than live a hollow life as a celebrity. In a few years when her contracts run out she really wants to have kids and we will probably hear less of her and she will stop doing concerts, clubtours, TV and radio performances but she promised she will never stop singing but more in her own pace.
Great song with an important message. As always, wonderfully commented by you. Love yourself exactly as you are, a life's work for so many people and an eternal learning process. Not everyone can do this for a variety of reasons. It is not limited to the appearance but to the entire personality development. That's sad, but true. If you never had the opportunity to be yourself and recognize yourself and your needs, you often remain a caterpillar in a cocoon and not become a butterfly at all.

Beautiful music and message

Thank you Elisabeth. I'm happy to read that.
