V5.5

Verse 1

I had a dream the earth was breathing,
With a heartbeat under stone,
And every scar I thought was hidden
Was a river leading home.

I saw a tree beyond all seasons,
With its branches full of light,
Roots wrapped around forgotten grief,
Leaves whispering through the night.

Pre-Chorus

And it said, child, you are not separate,
You are woven, you are known,
Every tear that left your body
Watered something you have grown.

Chorus

I am rooted in the dark,
I am reaching for the sun,
I am every broken ending
Still becoming everyone.

Through the ashes, through the thunder,
Through the silence and the scars,
I belong to the World Tree,
Roots beneath the stars.

⸻

Verse 2

Every branch became a memory,
Every leaf became a name,
Every ancestor was singing
Through the wind and through the flame.

I felt my mother in the moonlight,
Felt my father in the rain,
Felt the ones who left too early
Rising green from all the pain.

Pre-Chorus

And the tree said, nothing leaves you,
It transforms and changes form,
Even love that feels like winter
Feeds the forest after storms.

Chorus

I am rooted in the dark,
I am reaching for the sun,
I am every broken ending
Still becoming everyone.

Through the ashes, through the thunder,
Through the silence and the scars,
I belong to the World Tree,
Roots beneath the stars.

⸻

Bridge

Tie my sorrow to the branches,
Let the ravens carry truth,
Let the soil hold what broke me,
Let the sky return my youth.

I am sap and bone and lightning,
I am seed and sacred ground,
When I thought I had been buried,
I was only growing down.

Final Chorus

I am rooted in the dark,
I am reaching for the sun,
I am all my past and future
Breathing deep inside one lung.

Through the ashes, through the thunder,
Through the silence and the scars,
I belong to the World Tree,
Roots beneath the stars.

Outro

So let me bend, but never sever,
Let me lose, but not forget,
Every soul is tied together
In a net of violet thread.

And when I fall, I fall to nourish,
When I rise, I rise as art,
The World Tree grows inside me—
Ancient roots around my heart.
