Devin Turner released a music video for the
song “Butterfly” off his latest album Now or
Never.
“Butterfly” is a narrative about a woman
who has too often settled for mediocre and
abusive relationships, but soon finds her
reason for existence in a relationship with
Jesus Christ. Realizing her value in this
relationship with Christ causes her to make lifestyle changes and to live with a certainty
that she can have a healthy relationship
with a man who will respect and honor her
the way that she deserves. This song
communicates the fact that all women are
beautiful, made in the image of God and have a purpose that He created them for.
Many hip-hop songs paint the picture that
women are to be degraded and are to settle
for low expectations in a relationship with a
man. The metaphor that the song illustrates
is that a woman with a “caterpillar”
mentality will let the cocoon of society and popular opinion define her existence but a
“butterfly” mentality bursts out of the
cocoon of this mindset and soars high in the
assurance of purpose and existence that
can only be found first and foremost in a
relationship with Christ.
