Sacred Canopy

[Verse 1]
For years, my tendrils coiled, a whispered plea,
Apologies bloomed, meant for only me.
I shrank my leaves in the city's vibrant hum,
Waited for permission that would never come.
A quiet strength was buried in the loam,
Longing for a way to truly come back home.

[Chorus]
No more apologies for taking space,
My roots run deep, I claim this hallowed place.
Sunrise paints a canvas, bold and wide,
This luminous existence, nowhere left to hide.

[Verse 2]
Felt the pruning, sharp and swift, within,
A verdant courage, where do I begin?
This new cadence rises, strong and true,
Forgetting old shadows, embracing new.
Like a dormant seed, now awake to bloom,
I shed the past's ephemeral, quiet gloom.

[Chorus]
No more apologies for taking space,
My roots run deep, I claim this hallowed place.
Sunrise paints a canvas, bold and wide,
This luminous existence, nowhere left to hide.

[Bridge]
From Bogotá's high peaks, a vibrant grace,
I stretch my branches, leave no empty space.
Like mycorrhizae, connected, wide and vast,
My joyful presence, forever meant to last.

[Chorus]
No more apologies for taking space,
My roots run deep, I claim this hallowed place.
Sunrise paints a canvas, bold and wide,
This luminous existence, nowhere left to hide.

[Outro]
Luminous and free, I stand so tall,
Rising through the twilight, answering freedom's call.
