lyrics

They paved over this paradise before you were born
Left an asphalt desert of strip mall stores
It's like your only purpose is to buy what they sell
Toss your every precious penny down a bone dry well

Searched for your story but
You have no memories of
the roots you need to grow
How can you dig deep enough
When parking lots are covering up
All the sacred ground

In a moment of despair you looked at your feet
Saw a rebel dandelion pushing through the street
Closed your eyes and blew the petals with a breathless ease
Watched your wishes carried off by a restless breeze
It was thus that you discovered you're a sower of seeds
That will someday bust up the concrete

You feel a single raindrop the heavens are opening up
You're part of a greater plan
The roots buck the pavement the leaves are escaping
They'll liberate this land

I know you have sown a thousand seeds
I know they can set this hard earth free
I hope that someday we'll all be free
