Sunlight

You are on the run, I'll stay right here

My time is round and yours is linear

A tree is rooted in the ground

Your limbs are loose, your words are all around

Making sure your footprints seem

I stay invisible in forest greens

And you change the world a million times

I compete for sunlight

I compete for sunlight

You only care to win the prize

I compete for sunlight

I compete for sunlight

So I grow

Leaves unfold

While you win gold

And so I grow

Leaves unfold

While you win gold

Countries build and disappear

But I will shoot through concrete clear the air

You will scream and you will shout

I guess that man and nature grew apart

Words on words exhaust my ear

This sounds contaminated with fear

And you change the world a million times

I compete for sunlight

I compete for sunlight

You only care to win the prize

I compete for sunlight

I compete for sunlight

So I grow

Leaves unfold

While you win gold

So I grow

Leaves unfold

While you win gold
