Roots Before Branches

There's so many things to do and say

i can't seem to find my way

but wanna know how

i know I'm meant for something else

but first i gotta know myself

but i don't know how

why do i reach for the stars

when i don't have wings

to carry me that far



gotta have roots before branches

to know who i am

before i know who i wanna be

and faith to take chances

to live like i see

a place in this world for me



sometimes i don't wanna feel

and forget the pain is real

put my head in the clouds

start to run then i fall

i can't get it all

without my feet on the ground

there's always a seed

before there's a rose

the more that it rains the more i will grow



gotta have roots before branches

to know who i am

before i know who i wanna be

and faith to take chances

to live like i see

a place in this world for me



whatever comes i know how take it

learn to be strong

i wont have to fake it

you want to stand there

when your coming through at best

there aint nothing to beat the west

but i still be standin

i will be standin



if i have roots before branches

and know who i am

before i know who i want to be

and faith to take chances

to live like i see a place in this worldddd

for me



have roots before branches

and know who i am

before i know who i want to be

and faith to take chances

to live like i see a place in this worldddd

for me



only oh oh

i tried to have roots before branches

oh yeahhh
