Sweet Leaf
Alright now!
Won’t you listen?
When I first met you, didn’t realize
I can’t forget you or your surprise
You introduced me to my mind
And left me wanting you and your kind
I love you. Oh you know it.
My life was empty, forever on a down
Until you took me, showed me around
My life is free now, my life is clear
I love you sweet leaf—though you can’t hear.
Come on now—try it out
Straight people don’t know what you’re about
They put you down and shut you out
You gave to me a new belief
And soon the world will love you, sweet leaf.
