Tree

	I wanna be a tree
	Reaching for the sky
	Standing in the sun and wind and rain
	I wanna be a tree
	Tall and old and strong
	Standing in whatever weather comes
	I wanna be a flower
	With my face held to the sun
	The most beautiful color in the world
	I wanna be a flower
	Kiss the bees one by one
	Capture hearts as I unfurl
	Trees don’t know that they grow and grow
	Without ever seeking shelter
	Flowers do not know their beauty
	Will not last forever
	I wanna be a mother
	With a never-ending love
	For the stranger who grows into a man
	I wanna be a mother
	Like the earth to everyone
	The softest place you’ll ever land
	I wanna be a sister
	With a tattoo on my arm
	Blazing where a fire has never burned
	I wanna be a sister
	To anyone who’s needed one
	Feel the family grow at each turn
	Trees don’t know that they grow and grow
	Without ever seeking shelter
	Flowers do not know their beauty
	Will not last forever
	I wanna be a tree
	I wanna be a flower

	I wanna be a tree
