Roots Before Branches

Lyrics

[Verse 1] So many things to do and say But I can't seem to find my way But I wanna know how I know I'm meant for something else First, I gotta find myself But I don't know how [Pre-Chorus] Oh, why do I reach for the stars When I don't have wings To carry me that far? [Chorus] I 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, oh [Verse 2] Sometimes, I don't wanna feel And forget the pain is real Put my head in the clouds Oh, start to run and then I fall Seein' I can't get it all Without my feet on the ground [Pre-Chorus] There's always a seed Before there's a rose The more that it rains The more I will grow [Chorus] I gotta have roots before branches And 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 [Bridge] Whatever comes, I know how to take it Learn to be strong, I won't have to fake it Oh, you're understandin' Oh, the wind can come and do its best Blow me north and south, east and west But I'll still be standing here I'll be standing [Chorus] If I have roots before branches To know who I am Before I know who I wanna be And faith, oh, to take chances To live like I see A place in this world [Chorus] I gotta have roots before branches To know who I am Before I know who I wanna be And faith, to take chances And live like I see A place in this world For me Oh, I gotta have roots before branches Oh, yeah
