I'm not looking at anyone As I pass through these crowded streets I am looking past them And searching for the meaning Behind this altruistic feeling The longing and the knowing That there is a separation in our people; The stagnant and the growing And then those who are on the fence I was once there too, paralyzed by duress, I understand you But there's beauty in the growing When you firmly plant your feet in the soil And declare that I am a tree and I am not just here to **** up your used air but I'm here to recycle it reimagine it provide it I have a place where I'm rooted and I delight in it And my branches grow further every day As I'm reaching out to help the growth To give that much needed oxygen to those grown stagnant To give them a purpose or help reimagine it
