Lyrics:
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
A place in this world for me
Ooooh, heeee
Sometimes I don't wanna feel
(Sometimes I don't wanna feel)
And forget the pain is real
(And forget the pain is real)
Put my head in the clouds
Oh, start to run and then I fall
(Start to run and then I fall)
Thinkin' I can't get it all,
Without my feet on the ground
(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
A place in this world for me
Ooooh-oooh
Whatever comes I know how to take it
Learn to be strong I won't have to fake it
Oh, you're understandin'
Oooooh
The wind can come and do its best
Blow me north, and south, east and west
But I'll still be standing, I'll standing
If I have roots before branches,
To know who I am
(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
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
I gotta have roots
before branches
Ooooh, yeaaah
