Growing Up (Part 1)
Jurado 2
For weeks without rain left the land thirsty
The fields, carved into the forest by man,
Served only to grow crops to sell to strangers
The creek grows shallower by the day
Its source struggling in the drought
The woods were never quiet
But I knew where the property line ended
And I knew what days the tractors would come
Leaving nothing but red dirt in their wake
Growing Up (Part 2)
Jurado 3
But I wasnt afraid of bugs or dirt
And I knew that all his wrinkles were really laughter lines
