1) Root is a Czech metal legend from city of Brno founded in 1987 by Big Boss and Blackie. Root was one of the original pre-second-wave black metal bands, following in the footsteps of Bathory and Venom, while taking the genre in a more refined, less savage direction. Their style has since progressed towards a more epic, dark heavy metal sound with a clean-sung vocal approach, but their music can still be recognized as black metal at its core due to the unchanged ideology of the band. After the album Madness of the Graves (2003), Blackie left Root to concentrate on his band Cales. Blackie also played in side-project Entrails, an old school black-thrash metal band.

Root Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wrapped around the wind
Let go of your desire
Desire will suffer in the send
Suffer the will, will of the child
The child will born on our death
Child will be born on our death
Oh let the child be born
And be brought to the sun
As desire will come and suffer the will, will
Will of the child (repeat 2 Times)
Everything is so beautiful
Everything is so simple now
Colors weave into symbols of life
Symbols of life they weave into the wind
Oh weary child rest your head
Very soon the colors come alive
And the child will be born
Born on our death
Child will be born on our death
Oh let the child be born
And be brought to the sun
As the symbols of life
Weave into the wind ( Repeat 1 time)
Because everything is simple now
Nothing has ever changed
The colors all weave with life
Let the weary child be born
Because everything is simple now
Nothing has ever changed
The colors all weave with life
As we move into the wind

The song “Tree” by the Roots seems to be about the circle of life and the interconnectedness of all living things. The lyrics depict the image of a tree swaying in the wind, and encourage the listener to “let go of your desire” as desire will only lead to suffering. The will of the child will be born on our death, and the child will be brought to the sun.
The song suggests that everything is beautiful and simple if we allow it to be, and that the colors of life weave into symbols that represent our journey. The child as an image in the song represents our future, and the hope that we are all a part of a greater purpose. The weary child is encouraged to rest their head and wait for the colors to come alive; this may be interpreted as the child waiting for their time to shine and fulfill their destiny.
The song is rich with imagery and commentary on the human experience. It suggests that we can find peace and simplicity in our lives if we let go of our desires, recognize our connection to all living things, and embrace the journey.

Since everything is uncomplicated now
Nothing has ever changed
Nothing has ever altered
As we move into the wind
While we advance into the wind
Let the weary child be born
Let the exhausted child come into existence

There are exceptions though, the wild fig tree has roots up to 120 meters deep.
@touya_todoroki974
it probably has to carry oxygen and air down to the roots...
@jaceracer8070
Seems like the the exception lol. Unless there are many others?
@mr.paperbag771
Yeah, in my school they taught us that all trees divide roughly into two categories: those that grow roots laterally and those that grow roots vertically. There are also some mixes of the two but they are rare and often situational as trees can and will adapt.
Examples from my country. Pine is a surface dweller as it most often grows on solid rock and is a major destroyer of any asphalt near it. Birch on the other hand goes deep, way deep. One thing that also plays a factor in this is how they fall down. Pines tend to fall when their roots get rotten and they can't hold anymore whereas birches trunks often break and the base splinters when the tree falls. Also wide roots are good for solid ground and deep roots for soft ground.

@jaceracer8070 there are so many factors that effect it, here in Australia for most of the country our trees are far deeper rooted than shown here because most of the country gets stupidly dry so the top 3 ft is trash soil that has next to no water retention abilities. The same tree if a different climate and soil will have different root depths. A good way to think about it the roots will go where they need, if it's fairly soild soil that can hold water decently then they don't need to go down deep into the hard stuff but if it gets over 35-40°c for months on end then it will need to go deeper. Nature doesn't have many hard and fast rules, most are guidelines.
This is coming from experience ripping stumps out regularly and being around the bush my whole life and growing various trees etc over the years and not a fancy degree so take it with a grain of salt but I stand by my "nature doesn't have too many hard and fast rules" like it's gospel as how often does nature do something it's not meant to? All the bloody time doesn't matter if it's animals, plants or the weather.

That would be why he said 99%. And “usually”.
@myheartwillstopinjoy8142
Something about the trees being connected at the roots and being capable of sharing nutrients and communicate is so wholesome. I wonder what they tell each other, in tree language?
@judyfenske1429
They learn what is destroying neighboring trees. Then, they cling to each other through the tangled roots for strength.
@june5877
I don't know much about trees, but from the I little I've learned about plants, it's probably best to think of it less as communicating because of the implications of that word and more as sending signals between one another.

"This dog is peeing on me!"
Other trees: "Nice!"
