Roots Lyrics by BARBRA

2022

(i'm going back to my roots...)
(i'm going back to my home...)

I'm going back to my roots
I'm going back to my home
I'm going back to where I always felt comfortable
I'm going back to my space
Where everything's all in place
I'm going back to my favourite place to stay, oh-oh-oh

I gotta say it's hard to keep your head high
When I try something new my motivation dies
My roots are where I feel secure and I feel right
And yet there's still an urge to experience life

I'm going back to my roots
I'm going back to my home
I'm going back to where I always felt comfortable
I'm going back to my space
Where everything's all in place
I'm going back to my favourite place to stay, oh-oh-oh

'Cause you can't tell me nothing
I've tried hard enough
I work hard when I have to
I do what I must
So don't try to say
I'm lazy or dumb
It's my life choice
Not that of my mother

So what if I'm a one-trick pony who can't think for themselves?
I may not be street-smart but I deserve respect
It's none of your business, it's what I've decided
So go away now 'cause I'm sick and tired

I'm going back to my roots
I'm going back to my home
I'm going back to where I always felt comfortable
I'm going back to my space
Where everything's all in place
I'm going back to my favourite place to stay, oh-oh-oh
Back to my roots
I'm going back to my home
I'm going back to where I always felt comfortable
I'm going back to my space
Where everything's all in place
I'm going back to my favourite place to stay, oh-oh-oh

(i'm going back to my roots...)
(i'm going back to my home...)
