[guitar intro]
[verse}
Turbulent winds, or shattering storms can’t
Upend the tree born with strong roots
They are filled with love, wisdom compassion, the ability to see real truth;
I’ve felt the imprint and prayed for stability. I knew the trunk was behind me, and I could trust the words the wind spoke
Blessed in life as i felt protected by the shade, this kinda warmth helped me see growth
[guitar intro 2]
[verse]
Even when people didn’t or maybe couldn’t reach out
They felt the presence and eventually confidence would mount;
all has been seen and said so it could be blown away
That you could move forward and find peace as the stability protects the strays
[chorus]
Even with struggles of ourselves and the trauma we dump upon it
The strength it shows and belief we feel
Brought beauty from the people most chaotic
[verse]
No one asks why or where the tree is grown
Once it’s found the people find shade as the cast shadow proved no one’s alone;
Forgetting these trees need to flourish and can only through new scenery and setting
Picked me up after I’d fall, but now see me as a new man with beautiful wings spreading
[guitar solo]
[chorus]
Even with struggles of ourselves and the trauma we dump upon it
The strength it shows and belief we feel
Brought beauty from the people most chaotic
[outro verse]
The time was bound to come, branches have grown far for the need to help the next group of lost souls find meaning
I hope they can value what you bring to their world and see the same growth I did from looking past the leaves to the sun beaming
