I am corruptible by name

And I basically know how to master any simple game

And I shall twist in the wind

And like a blade of grass I'll survive and I'll win

And grow in dirt

And it can hurt

To grow in dirt

Sometimes it hurts

I nourish by my labor and pain

I burn up in the sun and I drown in the rain

And I'm told that its good to grow

But its not like there's a choice

Because didn't you know

We grow in dirt

And it can hurt

To grow in dirt

Sometimes it hurts

By every reprieve that I choose to believe

With every code that I stand by

I'm just a man with a stick in my hand

And I helplessly jab at the sky

Its my nature to try

Helps the time pass by

And I have this real need to talk loud

For I'm so meek and humble

It makes me arrogant and proud

And I won't be afraid to die

For I shall live forever

And here's my reason why

I grow in dirt

And its gonna hurt

To grow in dirt

Sometimes it hurts

To grow in dirt

Sometimes it hurts
