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
 But first 
 I gotta find myself
 But I don't know how

 Oh, why do 
 I reach for the stars
 When I don't have wings 
 To carry me that far?

 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
 place in this world 
 For me

 Sometimes 
 I don't wanna feel
 And forget the pain 
 Is real
 Put my head 
 In the clouds
 Oh, start [bad word] 
 And then I fall
 Seein' 
 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

 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
 place in this world 
 For me

 [bad word] 
 I know how to take it
 Learn to be strong 
 I won't have to fake it
 Oh, you're understandin'
 Oh, but when [bad word] 
 And do it best
 There ain't nothin' 
 To stoppin' east to west 
 (I'm not sure 
 if this is right)
 But I'll still 
 Be standing 
 I'll be standing

 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
 place in this world

 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
 place in this world 
 For me

 I gotta have 
 Roots before branches
