Swinging from my family tree (Young roots)
Looking up to the elders that were guiding me
Rain or shine, they helped this little sprout to grow
With love and laughter
Nourished up my heart and soul

We're setting a good example for the children
Cause back to the roots is how we're living
We're eating our food straight from the garden
Building community cause that is where the heart is

And when the flowers grow we'll share them with each other, yeah
