Roots Lyrics by ExoKaiser

2021

[Intro]
Uh, look

[Chorus]
Only 19 with a big dream, gotta blow by any means
I don't really have support, I think my family think I turned green
Just 'cause I say more don't mean I changed, no longer 15
I'm blowin' up, this world is so dark, but I gotta stay clean, uh

[Verse 1]
Never been one to change myself for no other niggas
They was tryna peer pressure me to get high, I said, "You dummy, nigga"
Shawty try to get me to take a lil' sip, I said, "You funny, nigga"
Can't forget my roots, if I did, then you could call me scummy, nigga
But I won't, never been one to get pressed on
If you gon' step, then you gon' get stepped on
I had to motivate myself with no shoulders to lean on
I had to hide the fact that I rap, knew that the rain was comin'
Had to go viral in silence, they thought it was strange or somethin'
I need my sister to know that she can tell me anything
They think I'm demonic 'cause I started rappin', but it's not registerin'
This ain't a diss, I'm just speakin' on things and how I feel
You touch my family and best believe your blood will spill
Niggas ain't ever been real, they takin' so much and they don't got skill
I'm on my page readin' hate comments, but that's part of the deal
Niggas gon' hate regardless
When you up, they say you garbage
But them niggas, they funny, though, so I don't even see no problems

[Chorus]
Only 19 with a big dream, gotta blow by any means
I don't really have support, I think my family think I turned green
Just 'cause I say more don't mean I changed, no longer 15
I'm blowin' up, this world is so dark, but I gotta stay clean, uh

[Verse 2]
I told myself that I'ma be good regardless
Trust in God, he gon' hold the harness
Many niggas think they better than me, but I gotta be honest
You not
They think I'm strange 'cause I want locks
You hear my name when you hear pop
They want the fame but can't sustain a little guap

[Bridge]
Yo, explain to me how that work
Y'all niggas crazy, bruh
Y'all be talkin' 'bout this and that, but y'all gotta start puttin' up some action, nigga, for real
Let's get it

[Chorus]
Only 19 with a big dream, gotta blow by any means
I don't really have support, I think my family think I turned green
Just 'cause I say more don't mean I changed, no longer 15
I'm blowin' up, this world is so dark, but I gotta stay clean, uh
