about

This track was written after ringing my state member of parliament and being told he was 'doing everything' he could to slow the destruction of trees and First Nation sacred sites.

lyrics

Tree grows roots in the ground,
Branches to the sky.
Tree grows in the spaces,
People come and go.

He says, “We’re doing everything we can”.
He’s just one man.

Trees fall, empty sky.
Birds fly.

We grow, our feet on the ground,
Reaching to the sky.
Children grow and people come and go.
