Lean On Me

Said The Tree

He needed support
He needed strength 
He needed energy
She said—Lean on me

He needed health 
He needed power
He needed a shoulder  
She said—Lean on me

He needed counsel
He needed understanding 
He needed wisdom
She said—Lean on me

He not just leaned 
He closed his eyes
He closed his ears
And he rode on her
Until eternity 
She didn’t mind 

He was hers
He was all
He was everything 
For her
She was willing to let him
Ride her 
Unto eternity 

But he grew arrogant
He grew proud 
He thought he was invincible 
She got upset
She demanded respect 
He didn’t understand her one bit 

So she showed him her strength 
And showed him how he needed her
In order to function effectively 
She didn’t plan on showing her muscle
But she had to show where his power lived
And he understood her words which kept him going 
Her words that said—Lean on me

When he understood 
Where his power lay 
Then he understood 
How to yield and play 
Lean on me 
Efficiently 

Now peace ✌🏽
