Perfect Pardon

There’s a seed for every season
That will meet the back that bends
A hunger that only harvest mends
And so you take the plow, tear into the earth
Tend and toil the red earth soil
Don’t care how much it hurts
You take the fight every time, you know
Blood that’s drawn from a rose grown in your own garden
River flows from a perfect pardon
If you barely scratch the surface
Then you don’t know a thing
You don’t know the tenderness it brings
Until you take the blow firmly on the chin
Adrenaline flows and finally you know
This is where your life begins
Take the fight every time, you know
Blood that’s drawn from a rose grown in your own garden
River flows from a perfect pardon
Some’ll pray for safety, others shelter from the rain, but
They don’t know the joy that it can bring
I won’t hide away, no, 'cause nothing grows
Nothing grows without the water from the storm, you know
Blood that’s drawn from a rose grown in your own garden
River flows from a perfect pardon
Blood that’s drawn from a rose grown in your own garden
River flows from a perfect pardon
Perfect pardon
