Invocation: Ballad for a Child

I would rather be a plant

Than a man in this land

I would rather be a plant on this land

You can transplant a plant

Where it can grow free

But a man that's been transplanted can't

So you can see where i would rather be a tree

With branches and leaves i can grow free

If man had a choice before he's exploited

Then his offspring would do more than dream

Isn't that a shame
