We are all a tree With branches that weigh us down And leaves that change with the seasons We need water to survive The wind has the ability to knock us down Or sway our branches to such a point That we feel as if things will never be the same But next year, we start over With fresh leaves and ideas We can become anew We all have roots that keep us in our place Keep us from leaning over too far Humanity is scattered about randomly But also planted for purpose The forests are slowly disappearing And soon humanity could too Treat humanity as trees We need them to breathe To live

Trees
We are all a tree With branches that weigh us down And leaves that change with the seasons We need water to survive The wind has the ability to knock us down Or sway our branches to such a point That we feel as if things will never be the same But next year, we start over With fresh leaves and ideas We can become anew We all have roots that keep us in our place Keep us from leaning over too far Humanity is scattered about randomly But also planted for purpose The forests are slowly disappearing And soon humanity could too Treat humanity as trees We need them to breathe To live
