Grassroots I was born alone, and I'll die alone Everything I hold is a rolling stone I'm a heart that broke, did it on my own Did it on my own I'm a light left on a little bit too long When it got me lost, what was I running from? Have to get back home, strip it to the bone Strip it to the bone Under all those years, under all that dirt There's a kid down there who had to learn How to find a way through (How to find a way through) Just tryin' to get back to Grassroots I was makin' plans, I was overdue Then the seasons change like people do Now I'm making room for something new For something new Under all those years, under all that dirt There's a kid down there who had to learn How to find a way through (How to find a way through) Just tryin' to get back to The light that shines, the daydreamer The kid down there that doesn't turn Away from the hard truth It all comes back to Grassroots Hoo-ooh, hoo-ooh (I lost myself) Hoo-ooh, hoo-ooh (Then I found myself) Hoo-ooh (Hoo-ooh, it always comes back to) (Grassroots) Now I'm starting over Getting a little bit closer I wanna know her I wanna know her Under all those years, under all that dirt There's a kid down there who had to learn How to find a way through Just tryin' to get back to The heart that beats, a fire that burns To set me free and maybe I'll learn To take in the view From where it grew Grassroots
