lyrics

My Origin
by Millagram

Standing in the midst of so much ignorant thought
Searching for the truth amidst the lies that we bought
About who we are and where we come from
Like a tree in the field reaching toward the sun

Could we ever stand as tall as one of these?
Could we ever move and heave as the wind weaves?
Could we ever make a better home for the birds and bees?
Nothing but the trees, nothing but the trees

Feel the sap from the roots rising with the moon
Sweet gifts from the ancestors I’ve never know
My origin, my origin
X2

I wanted to believe your words of prophecy
I wanted someone to see the things that I couldn’t see
But how am I to believe, it’s the same book that we read
Exactly where I am right now is where I’m supposed to be
True religion is to feed the poor
It’s to offer up a helpless stranger an open door
There is no answer, the answer is you
Everyone is doing what they were created to do

Could we ever stand as tall as one of these?
Could we ever move and heave as the wind weaves?
Could we ever make a better home for the birds and bees?
Nothing but the trees, nothing but the trees

Feel the sap from the roots rising with the moon
Sweet gifts from the ancestors I’ve never know
My origin, my origin
X2
