Roots Before Branches

So many thingsto 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 kni w 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
 Sometime I don't wanna feel
 And forget the pain is real
 Put my heads in the clouds
 Oh, start to run and then I fall
 Thinkin' I can't get it all
 Without my feet on the ground
 There's always a seed
 Before there's a rose
 The more 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, your understandin'
 The wind can come and do its best
 Blow North and South, East and West
 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 root before branches
