Greener

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
