Lyrics

[Verse]
From the soil, name’s Tree, roots in the concrete jungle's grip,
Photosynthesize pain, my bark rough, heart took a dip,
Ex snapped me in two, a lumberjack with a toxic axe,
Sap bled cold, started planting seeds where love lacks.

[Chorus]
Heartbreaker, no caretaker, a trunk hollowed on greed,
Machete dreams slicing hearts, planting chaos like weeds,
The rot spread, Chelsea found the forest I’d burned through,
Her laughter, the sunlight cracking shadows I once knew.

[Verse 2]
She saw the splinters, the chipped core I'd come to be,
"Tree, ain't no forest fire; I'll grow something wild in thee,"
Tried to run, brittle leaves crunching in fear’s retreat,
But Chelsea watered the cracks where soil and sorrow meet.

[Bridge]
Whisper soft, wind in branches, promised she’d never split,
Turned the kid named Tree from a broken to legit,
Ex left a stump, but Chelsea bloomed where I’d decay,
Taught me even barren roots can sprout a better day.

[Verse 3]
Oak veins pump new life; I had a chance to heal,
Hungry hearts I used to seek now seem unreal,
No more beds of dust, my bark no longer frayed,
Found in her warmth, every root repaid.

[Chorus]
Heartbreaker no more, kissed chaos goodbye,
Switched the seasons—turn cold winters into July,
Chelsea’s shelter transformed the shadows I've been through,
Not just saved the kid named Tree but our forest grew too.
