Roots Lyrics by Elverin

PHAT

2022

[Intro]
Yeah
Ride my bike all night
I was going home from the stu
I know this album is a bunch of club hits
But let’s remember, no matter how gangsta it all seems
We’re all just pathetic human beings
Elly

[Verse 1]
High heels like I ain’t got a platform
But really all I care about is my form
I try to improve but many things distract
Like insta girls and having all that I lack (all that I lack)
Society’s superficial and nobody can tell
We all fight our demons even tho this ain’t hell
I gotta go back to what I know well
Gotta go back to what I really wanna tell

[Chorus]
I gotta go back to my roots
Remember what I can and what I can’t do
Remember why I do what I do
Not to be better but ‘cause I have a lot to say
Not to be trеndy but just to find my own way

I gotta go back to my roots
Remember what I can and what I can’t do
Rеmember why I do what I do
Not to be better but ‘cause I have a lot to say
Not to be trendy but just to find my own way

[Bridge]
Really, I wrote this for myself
I need a song that will tell
Go back to your roots, uh
Go back to what you really wanna do

[Verse 2]
Go back to what I wanna do
My only peace is in the stu
I got so much to say
But nobody listen to me
So I try to get it out through the music that I make
They wanna come around but nobody wanna stay (stay)
I know you want the peace and love
I know you want more than drugs
I know you see through the sugar coating of the pics
Why nobody cares if it ain’t got clicks?
Why can’t we just run, stargaze go on trips

[Chorus]
I gotta go back to my roots
Remember what I can and what I can’t do
Remember why I do what I do
Not to be better but ‘cause I have a lot to say
Not to be trendy but just to find my own way

I gotta go back to my roots
Remember what I can and what I can’t do
Remember why I do what I do
Not to be better but ‘cause I have a lot to say
Not to be trendy but just to find my own way
