Eric & Kalvin - Roots Lyrics

For the people who are always there
Loved me through the thick and thin
Short or long wavy hair
Difference in skin tone
Never seemed to make them disappear
Roots go deeper than blood, the love was always near
From drugs to overdoses
To dumb nights, fist fights
Or me piss drunk on her door steps
Begging for one last night
I guess this what family for
Rotten ones
Type of love that opened up my doors
I know you watching down on me
Sweetest love never doubted me
When no one was you was proud of me
Did something wrong, never shouted
He, only showed the sweetest hugs
Sweetest love
Cheer up, and chew this gum
Spoiled love we were the rotten ones
Didn't tell you enough but
I love you 10 times more
Tried to reach you
But heaven went and closed the door
Taught me that family's all I need
Painted this picture for the ones you left behind
Roots going deeper than blood in the tree
Stand tall cause he proud of me
Taught me that fam is all we need
Watch me grow and get through these lumps
Throw the shade over lonely chumps
Spread my wings and fly over bumps
Cause In the world I ain't the only one
Fly away, Just fly away, fly away
And just flap those wings
Just flap those wings, flap those wings
(Flap those wings, flap those wings)

Been searching for meaning and signs in the grey
With light through the blinds
I'm no longer afraid
Wind in my face and the feet in the soil
I'm reaching for clouds
With the love I am spoiled
Been searching for meaning and signs in the grey
With light through the blinds
I'm no longer afraid
(Wind in my, wind in my, wind in my)
Been searching for meaning and signs in the grey
With light through the blinds
I'm no longer afraid
Wind in my face and the feet in the soil
I'm reaching for clouds
With the love I am spoiled
