We Are The Weed People

We Are The Weed People

We are the weeds—
rooted deep in resilience.

Dropped here from distant lands,
we rise,
storm after storm,
spirit ever higher.

From ancient bondage,
we carry vibrant essence—
a tapestry torn,
yet tightly woven
with pain, survival, and truth.

We resist
the tide of revisionism.

Still, we thrive.

Our songs, our art,
our living traditions
endure and evolve,
wherever the Weed Seed lands.

We are the rhythm.
The soulful echo.
We make unfamiliar places home.

We are poets.
Artists.
Builders of dreams.

Chasing light.
Creating futures.

We are scholars,
healers,
defenders of justice—
rooted, fierce, unyielding.

We are many.
We are mighty.

We are The Weed People.

From every corner,
our voices rise—
a symphony of hope.

Let your Weed Seed grow.
Let your spirit take flight.

We thrive.
We rise.
We survive the tide.
