Take it from the start
I wanted something bad so picked myself apart
Dissected and I sold
A piece of me to you
Marrow from my bone
I'm contaminated now
You reached inside you took
The parts you wanted out
Maybe you forgot
You can take what I have but I grow something better back
Chin up
Spine tall
You won't take it away from me
Each time
You pull
I make bigger and greener leaves
And when you go
I will still have the best of me
My seed will grow
You won't take it away from me
You never learned to stop
You viewed my as a pawn never recognized my power
I smiled for my life
You offered me no gifts
You just bled my spirit dry
I haunt you now
I'm a living ghost of a boy who used to bow
Without you in my life
I'm thriving in my truth
I cleanse and multiply
Chin up
Spine tall
You won't take it away from me
Each time
You pull
I make bigger and greener leaves
And when you go
I will still have the best of me
My seed will grow
You won't take it away from me
Bury me in shadow thoughts
Drown me like it's my own fault
Try to block the sun
But I can see right through you
Put your hand to my heart
Like you're unlocking a vault
To steal what's in side
But I know how to fool you
Chin up
Spine tall
You won't take it away from me
Each time
You pull
I make bigger and greener leaves
And when you go
I will still have the best of me
My seed will grow
You won't take it away from me
