The Mustard Seed Lyrics

I found myself drunk with thirst
Sleeping in the midst of this world
Tryna find what was yet to arise
Deep inside this heart of mine
My soul is afflicted, for I've been blind
They don't want to leave as empty as I've come
Heard the clocks are ticking, seeing time is short
Life is running fast out of your hands

Let the mustard seed grow a big old tree
So the birds of heaven can come down to me
Let the mustard seed grow a big old tree
So the birds of heaven come together

Silenced my mind, shook off the wine
Everything's here and it's now
I was born free yesterday
But tomorrow's the keys to my chains
We're all great beggars, the minimal time
Together what we'll leave behind
But if more is what we need to feel rich in here
Then poverty awaits down the line

Let the mustard seed grow a big old tree
So the birds of heaven can come down to me
Let the mustard seed grow a big old tree
So the birds of heaven come together

Come together now, now

Let the mustard seed grow a big old tree
So the birds of heaven can come down to me
Let the mustard seed grow a big old tree
So the birds of heaven come together now, now
(Let the mustard seed grow a big old tree)
I will work like I don't need the money
(So the birds of heaven can come down to me)
I will love like I've never been hurt before
And I will dance like nobody's watching
(Let the mustard seed grow a big old tree)
(So the birds of heaven come together)
I will live like I've never lived before

I find myself saying these words
Waking up in the midst of this world

What is the Meaning of The Mustard Seed?

Ever felt like you're searching for something deeper in life? This song by Son Mieux captures that journey perfectly. It talks about feeling lost and thirsty for meaning, but realizing that everything you need is already within you. The mustard seed symbolizes small beginnings growing into something significant and beautiful, like a big old tree where birds—representing peace and fulfillment—can gather. The lyrics encourage living fully and authentically: work without being driven by money, love without fear of hurt, dance freely, and truly live. It's a reminder that life's richness comes from within, not from material wealth, and embracing this can lead to profound personal growth.
