Here We Grow
The grind is growing trees. Time invested locally
Knowing I can hold a piece of minds if I can sow the seed
Shining through a grove of green, the light is coming over me
I discuss it openly. I mostly like to grow OGs
I hold this rosary of trees I got from overseas
You know the breed? You know the ones who sold the P's?
I know defining moments, I was sold a dream.
Never thought that I'd be growing when I started smoking weed
And it's elating. In communion with an herb
I've been raving about the work and putting fingers in the dirt
Steady bathing in these terps, always vacation on this turf
Take a taste for what it's worth, and find your place upon this earth
Find your strain, show it love, give it nutrients, check for bugs
Play some music. Let the sun provide a light from up above
Don't rush the flush or be a wet trim, amateur.
Hang it till the stem cracks. Now it's time to manicure
Now it's time to gravitate towards cultivate regenerate
Venerated for the benefit and what she medicates
It helps you sleep, there's pain relief, and you won't get complacent
There's mood stimulation and creative inspiration
It's okay to take a break, regain appreciation
She'll be there when you're ready. Always at the next station
Maybe Marys not your cup of tea, but that's alright
Because she's never killed a person in her life
So let the jive ease the mind. I will not take it out of sight
Here we grow, trying to fight the good fight
Now it's turned into a cash crop overnight
So here we grow. Here we grow yo
How could it be wrong if it feels so right?
Here we grow, trying to fight the good fight
Helping all these flowers thrive, so they're better to ignite
Here we grow. Here we grow
I was living in Colorado when we ended prohibition
Back in 2012 I had a shift and started trimming
A couple months later got promoted from the kitchen
Felt like a revival of a long lost tradition
The first gig was dope. We had incredible genetics
I ran the veg, cut the clones, and kept the mothers fresh
For the first time work collided with some pride and love.
And the next year, we won the Cannabis Cup
I got fired for buying molly in a flower room
I started trimming for this other spot the next day at noon
Only two years in and I was completely consumed
Proud of what I do, as I'm howling at the moon.
I'm about it, and I'm cruising toward a new set of skills
Feeling things I didn't think that I could ever feel
These days we're still growing tough in the garden.
There's something symbiotic that we harvest.
So let the jive ease the mind. I will not take it out of sight
Here we grow, trying to fight the good fight
Now it's turned into a cash crop overnight
So here we grow. Here we grow, yo
How could it be wrong if it feels so right?
Here we grow, trying to fight the good fight
Helping all these flowers thrive, so they're better to ignite
Here we grow. Here we grow
I don't really like these pesticides we spray
Most growers aren't organic and their shit smells like hay
You need to learn that patience is a virtue in this game
Set aside the expectations and erase within the frame
Of mind.
The secret life of plants is so divine.
You can diagnose deficiencies if you just know the signs
You can grow this herb efficiently
Or you can take a ride and buy a scope
Some types of mites you cant see with the naked eye
Don't get sentimental killing plants if they're infected
Some shit can wipe your whole fucking crop out in a second
The viruses and pathogens and molds are systemic
Sometimes the only real way to know is get it tested
This is survival of the fittest of the phenos.
Reload and dethrone till we grow some primo
The arrival of the dopest dope that you have ever smoked
Peace to those who use the herb to cope
So let the jive ease the mind. I will not take it out of sight
Here we grow, trying to fight the good fight
Now it's turned into a cash crop overnight
So here we grow. Here we grow, yo
How could it be wrong if it feels so right?
Here we grow, trying to fight the good fight
Helping all these flowers thrive, so they're better to ignite
Here we grow. Here we grow
