Roots Lyrics by Solgob

Of All

2019

Hey, bring that brass in... BRING IT IN!

Music out the speakers, Velcro on the sneakers
Having fun isn’t hard, got a library card
Clean off the blacktop - too many needles
Play street hockey with my peoples
Ice tea or lemonade - we chillin in the shade
Goin home smell ya later - can’t catch speed racer
Pop in contra - or maybe Zelda
Ring pops, sugar high, ain’t shit you can tell us
Mom, I swear I’m sick, I gotta skip school
Oh the bus went by? Heh, let’s go to the pool
Do a cannonball - off the diving board
Grab the noodles, now they pirate swords
Next day in school, straight act like a fool
Get thrown outta class, teacher can eat my ass
Doing target practice, with paper wasps
Get home, play drums, and work on my chops

It’s just the simple things you do growing up, these are your roots
X2

Go down to the train tracks - nah we ain’t coming back
Putting nickels on the rails - better make them shits flat
As the train went by, heard the halo soundtrack
SLO-Mo shrapnel, get the fuck back
Got church in the evening - take the sandy trail
Better start leaving, don’t wanna go to hell
Get there 10 minutes late, hear the Bible tale
Leave 10 minutes early, call that a Christian Bail
Skate down to the creek, make a fort in the bamboo trees
Pass around rolling rocks, get chased by the cops
Bend around the corner - quick, throw the weed out
Hit the tree line, you on our turf now
Shortcut to the crib, few rounds Madlibs
Got blood on my knee - oh well, drink chamomile tea
Boot up the camera - makin home movies
It’s your turn for stuntman duty

It’s just the simple things you do growing up, these are your roots
X2

In the yard in the dark, lil bro creeps up like a shark
Midnight on the dot, he had a revenge plot
Ima find him alone - punch dude in the face
That’ll put him in his fucking place
Popped me in the skull, left standing in awe
I was feeling the most, lil bro went ghost
Never really knew - why the fuck he did that
But I sure as hell knew that I deserved it
