Lyrics 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
