You are here Overlooked yet you stand tall Merely existing as part of something greater Feeding off of what the sun can give What the darkness could never provide You’ve grown rings Each tell a story Of all the forces you’ve conquered But you are still In the same place you were yesterday The same place you will be tomorrow Yet you stand tall Tall as though no wind will be strong enough to unroot the foundation you have made Merely existing as part of something greater Content with spot you’ve chosen to grow You stand a lot taller

You are here Overlooked yet you stand tall Merely existing as part of something greater Feeding off of what the sun can give What the darkness could never provide You’ve grown rings Each tell a story Of all the forces you’ve conquered But you are still In the same place you were yesterday The same place you will be tomorrow Yet you stand tall Tall as though no wind will be strong enough to unroot the foundation you have made Merely existing as part of something greater Content with spot you’ve chosen to grow You stand a lot taller
