Rooftop Garden
There was a garden on a rooftop
And with its bounty
It fed the people who lived beneath it
The people were the roots connecting it to the ground
And when the sun came out
It warmed everyone within
And when the rains came
They quenched the thirst and made it clean again
No one walked away
Never leave it untended
We still are the free Red White and Blue
No one walked away there's no need pretending
It's not all for me and none for you
And none for you
The roots of the garden, the people
In their creature comfort
They wanted and they wanted
Get off of our backs we don't need your food no more
From underneath they hit the streets their garden crumbles
And the leaders of those who need no leaders at all
Sip their tea on a pile of rubble
No one walked away
Never leave it untended
We still are the free Red White and Blue
No one walks away there's no need pretending
It's not all for me and none for you
Oh and none for you
Will you see me in my garden
My secret garden
We can move to the sound of the heartbeat
Of the planting, unifying, we can love the seeds we sow
From on the rooftop the downward flowing
connected people once again
The harvest comes, the harvest season with rhyme and reason
No one walks away
Never leave it untended
We still are the free Red White and Blue
No one walks away there's no need pretending
It's not all for me and none for you
Whoa and none for you
And with its bounty
It fed the people who lived beneath it
The people were the roots connecting it to the ground
And when the sun came out
It warmed everyone within
And when the rains came
They quenched the thirst and made it clean again
No one walked away
Never leave it untended
We still are the free Red White and Blue
No one walked away there's no need pretending
It's not all for me and none for you
And none for you
The roots of the garden, the people
In their creature comfort
They wanted and they wanted
Get off of our backs we don't need your food no more
From underneath they hit the streets their garden crumbles
And the leaders of those who need no leaders at all
Sip their tea on a pile of rubble
No one walked away
Never leave it untended
We still are the free Red White and Blue
No one walks away there's no need pretending
It's not all for me and none for you
Oh and none for you
Will you see me in my garden
My secret garden
We can move to the sound of the heartbeat
Of the planting, unifying, we can love the seeds we sow
From on the rooftop the downward flowing
connected people once again
The harvest comes, the harvest season with rhyme and reason
No one walks away
Never leave it untended
We still are the free Red White and Blue
No one walks away there's no need pretending
It's not all for me and none for you
Whoa and none for you
