Freedom and choice, it's only wish.
Soar! A plea from the sky.
"I'm ready to fly!" the seed cries.
Freedom and choice, it's only wish.
Shackled down, he can only wish.
"Will I ever have the chance to rise" the seed cries?
A blessing from the heavens, alas, the winds blow by.
Untethered from it's root, the seed is alift.
Yet no destination is set, the seed is adrift.
A small embryo, full of potential.
All the seed must do is settle.
Yet afraid of landing into deprived land.
Continuing to drift around the motherland.
Will he ever land?
Freedom and choice, it's only wish.
Alas, was it a wonderful gift?
