Lyrics

Our bodies are just like trees 
Our bodies ( bent over ) are just like trees ( exposed; endangered ) 
Our bodies ( limbs twisted ) are just like trees ( fragile; vulnerable ) 
Our bodies ( growth stunted ) are just like trees ( dwarfed; unhealthy )

We sway, we shake, we bend… we break 
All determines our growth, our shape 

Our spirits are just like birds 
Our spirits ( uplifted ) are just like birds ( soaring; gliding ) 
Our spirits ( instinctive ) are just like birds ( driven; natural ) 
Our spirits ( transient ) are just like birds ( fleeting; disappearing ) 

We fly, we plane, we plunge… we flee 
All determines our chance to be free 
We live, overcome, survive… succumb 
All determines what we become
 
Our bodies are just like trees ; Our spirits are just like birds
