So many things o 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

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

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

Whatever comes
I know how to take it
Learn to be strong
I won't have to fake it
Oh, you're understandin'
Oh, but when you come
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
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
