Stand On The Ground

Deep in the forest, a tree grows high
Branches reaching to the star-filled sky
Night after night as the years roll by
Never questions why
The roots are deep, the tree won’t fall
Like a strong foundation, lets the building grow tall
Holding the earth and reaching into the all
Free to answer the call to
Stand on the ground, reach for the stars
Time will reveal everything that you are
Hold to the earth, and let your dreams fly far
Stand on the ground… oh, but reach for the stars
How the arrow flies, depends on the bow
Without the mountain, the river don’t flow
A kite will fly with a string far below
If ya just don’t let go…
Stand on the ground, reach for the stars
Time will reveal everything that you are
Hold to the earth, and let your dreams fly far
Stand on the ground… oh, but reach for the stars
We are the children of both the sun and the earth
We need to fly, we need to fly, to truly know our worth
Stand on the ground, reach for the stars
Time will reveal everything that you are
Hold to the earth, and let your dreams fly far
Stand on the ground… oh, but reach for the stars
