There will never be growth if it is not watered,
There will never be growth if it is not nurtured.

However,

There will also never be growth if it is not torched under the hot sun,
There will also never be growth if it does not stay in the long run.

It might get dried up by the scorching heat of the sun,
It might get stomped over by others in the long run,
It might even swayed when the day is fun,
But that doesn't mean you are done.


You are merely a seed just waiting to grow,
To unfold the world that you can't hold,
To be with the nature as we grow old,
To feel the breeze when the wind blows

In order to blossom,
You must grow,
Even tho it's slow,
You gotta be bold.

I'll show you the patience,
I'll show you the resilience,

I'll have to be stern,
But trust me,


You are never a burden.
