Intro (0:00–0:25 | Orchestral, low strings + choir) (spoken, restrained) You don’t just plant it in yourself. You plant it in everyone around you. ⸻ Verse 1 (0:25–0:55) Boots on the pavement, keys in my hand Another long day, another stand Words on my tongue weigh more than stone Every seed I drop gets carried home My kids hear silence louder than sound My wife feels truth when my guard breaks down I don’t need a throne or a preacher’s seat My life is the soil beneath my feet ⸻ Pre-Chorus (0:55–1:10) Every habit, every choice I make Every fire I feed or faith I break I’m planting roots I may not see But the harvest is coming back to me ⸻ Chorus (1:10–1:40 | FULL WALL) I OWN THE SEED I OWN THE GROUND WHAT I PLANT IS GROWING ALL AROUND IN MY HOUSE, IN MY NAME IN THE LIGHT AND IN THE FLAME I OWN THE SEED I BEAR THE WEIGHT WHAT I SOW DECIDES THE SHAPE LORD, LEAD MY HAND — HELP ME SEE BUT I STILL OWN THE SEED ⸻ Verse 2 (1:40–2:05 | Grittier, tighter) Pressure talks when the money’s thin Anger knocks, says “let me in” Kids mess up, eyes on me Waiting to see who I’m gonna be The men around me learn my ways From how I fight to how I pray I don’t need words to make it clear They read my faith when I’m under fear ⸻ Pre-Chorus (2:05–2:20) I don’t get to choose if I plant or not Every step I take marks the spot If You own my heart, then break my pride Let Your word be the seed inside ⸻ Chorus (2:20–2:45 | Repeat, bigger harmonies) I OWN THE SEED I OWN THE GROUND WHAT I PLANT IS GROWING ALL AROUND IN MY HOUSE, IN MY NAME IN THE LIGHT AND IN THE FLAME I OWN THE SEED I BEAR THE WEIGHT WHAT I SOW DECIDES THE SHAPE LORD, LEAD MY HAND — HELP ME SEE BUT I STILL OWN THE SEED ⸻ Bridge (2:45–3:10 | Half-time breakdown) (spoken-growl) A man reaps what he sows. (sung) Write it on my heart Speak it in my home When I walk this road I don’t walk alone If I fall, let them see me rise If I fail, let them see You fight Make my life the proof they need That You’re the Lord of every seed ⸻ Final Chorus (3:10–3:40 | Drop → EXPLODE) I OWN THE SEED BUT YOU OWN THE RAIN YOU TURN THE DIRT INTO PURPOSE AND PAIN I’LL PLANT YOUR TRUTH I’LL STAND AND BLEED AND TRUST YOU WITH WHAT GROWS FROM ME I OWN THE SEED I’LL PLANT IT RIGHT FAITH IN THE DARK, HOPE IN THE FIGHT TILL MY CHILDREN STAND WHERE I’VE BEEN I OWN THE SEED — YOU WRITE THE END ⸻ Outro (3:40–3:55 | Orchestral decay) (soft) You don’t get to choose whether you’re planting… Only what kind of seed it is.

Own the seed
