I keep a knife in the kitchen drawer
for the lemons, not for you
but you flinch anyway
like you already know
what’s underneath my calm

You can have the skin, not the root
You can have the skin, not the root

Take the surface, leave the source
Take the surface, leave the source
I’ll still be growing
After you walk out the door

You wanted something easy
Something that wilts on cue
I gave you orchids instead
The kind that outlive
The hand that waters them

You can have the skin, not the root
You can have the skin, not the root
You can have the skin, not the root

Every man who’s left
Thought he took something with him
He didn’t
He took the part I was already done with

The part that bruises easy
The part that begs
I kept the part that grows back darker

You can have the skin, not the root

Take the surface, leave the source
Take the surface, leave the source
I’ll still be growing
Long after you’re gone

You can have the skin, not the root
You can have the skin, not the root

I am not your garden
To be pruned and praised
I am the weed that cracks the sidewalk
That nobody asked for
And nobody can kill

You can have the skin, not the root
You can have the skin, not the root

I let you name all the soft parts of me
The parts that photograph well
The parts that fold easy

You never asked about the root system
Running under the floorboards
Under the whole house
Under everything you thought you were standing on

You can have the skin, not the root
You can have the skin, not the root
You can have the skin, not the root

So go on, keep the photograph
Keep the version of me that fit in a frame

I was never going to fit
I was always going to outgrow
The walls, the frame, the room, you

Take the surface, leave the source
Take the surface, leave the source
I’ll still be growing
Long after you’re gone
Long after you’re gone

You can have the skin, not the root
You can have the skin, not the root
You can have the skin, not the root
Not the root

✨ A surreal AI music video set in a dreamlike, cinematic landscape.
This visual poem explores time, value, and perception through generative AI visuals.

In this beautifully strange world, familiar meanings begin to dissolve.
What we chase feels fleeting, while the unseen—time, imagination, and inner stillness—quietly becomes central.

Through cinematic AI visuals, Timeful Video AI invites you to pause and reflect on what truly holds meaning.
Some things cannot be measured—only felt.

✨ Let this be a space where time slows down, and meaning deepens.
