| I’m fearful of the future and I’m running from the past
|
| Comfortable for right now but how long will it last
|
| Well I’ve been running so long and my legs are getting tired
|
| I’m gonna stay for awhile warm myself by the fire
|
| I’m gonna stay for awhile warm myself by the fire
|
| Got to get my roots down
|
| Got to get my roots down
|
| Got to get 'em in before I up and leave this town
|
| Got to get my roots down
|
| They tell me keep on running, don’t you stay in one place
|
| Can’t leave an honest man alone to dig his own grave

|
| Ignore all the voices, put em down in the dirt
|
| They try to chase me away but I push until it hurts

|
| Until it all crumbles and I fall to the ground
|
| Got to get my roots down
