Lyrics:
Roots to grow and wings to flyThe world is cold, the world can lieEvery child has its own piece of skyA place you hold till the day that you dieI wanna be heart, I wanna be soulI wanna be free to do the best I canAnd that'll keep me satisfiedRoots to grow and wings to flyThat's what your mama gave youThe world is cold, the world can lieNobody else will save youMy God he asks promises I just can't makeI need to search my wilder sideRoots to grow and wings to flyLord have mercyYeah, I know that sky's the limitYou know why?AnywaysYou bless with every tingleWhen you wanna beActual virtual realityYou know if I'm missin' youYou are in charge of your memoryCertain things take time to seeYes you got to have a mind of your ownResponding to your feelings deep down in your boneLife is so luciousSoul is so preciousNow spread your wings and flyRoots to grow and wings to flyThat's what your mama gave youThe world is cold, the world can lieNobody else will save youMy God he asks promises I just can't makeI need to search my wilder sideRoots to grow and wings to flySomewhere I hear my nameFar off in the hazeBut now I don't feel the sameNeed somewhere else, somewhere else to playRoots to grow and wings to flyThat's what your mama gave youThe world is cold, the world can lieNobody else will save youMy God he asks promises I just can't makeI need to search my wilder sideRoots to grow and wings to fly
