You are like a rose, the stem that gives your petals (followers) the power we need to survive.
          
          However, I guess we are kinda like your stem too. We keep you upright, happy, and support you all the way.
          
          If you go down and quit, we fall. If we fall and quit on you, you might go down too.
          
          “I speak for the trees” (the followers)  We will not quit on you so you better not quit on us!
