Where are your roots at
Gotta dig a little
Check the past out
Free it up a little
Sometimes it can change everything
Knowing where you come from
Where are your shoots at
Gotta grow a little
Spread yourself out
Live it up a little
Sometimes it can change everything
Knowing where you come from
Digging in and looking back may mean unearthing something unexpected
The good, the bad, the ugly come together and may offer new perspective
Though you may feel proud or feel ashamed about your past, don't ignore it
Your history and all it is won't have the power to own you if you own it
Roots go deep
You'd think just the shoots are the seen
But you know what life is like
It's not black and white
Not black and white
Not black and white Oh
Where are your roots at
Gotta dig a little
Check the past out
Free it up a little
Sometimes it can change everything
Knowing where you come from
Where are your shoots at
Gotta grow a little
Spread yourself out
Live it up a little
Sometimes it can change everything
Knowing where you come from
The presence of the past is sure to manifest itself sooner or later
And there are times you just might see your background coming out in your behaviour
So check the ground you're planted in, observe, acknowledge where you've been, knowing
Your circumstance may contribute, but still does not determine where you're going
You know, roots go deep
You'd think just the shoots are the seen
But you know what life is like
It's not black and white
Not black and white
Not black and white Oh
Roots go deep
You'd think just the shoots are the seen
But you know what life is like
It's not black and white
Not black and white
Not black and white Oh
Where are your roots at
Gotta dig a little
Check the past out
Free it up a little
Sometimes it can change everything
Knowing where you come from
Where are your shoots at
Gotta grow a little
Spread yourself out
Live it up a little
Sometimes it can change everything
Knowing where you come from
Knowing where you come from
Knowing where you come from
Knowing where you come
Knowing where you come
Knowing where you come from
Hey, hey, hey
Knowing where you come from
Hey, hey, hey
Knowing where you come from
Where are your roots at
Gotta dig a little
Check the past out
Free it up a little
Sometimes it can change everything
Knowing where you come from
Where are your shoots at
Gotta grow a little
Spread yourself out
Live it up a little
Sometimes it can change everything
Knowing where you come from
Hey, hey, hey
Knowing where you come from
