Glee Cast feat. Lea Michele Lyrics
"Roots Before Branches"

There's so many things to do and say
I can't seem to find my way
But wanna know how
I know I'm meant for something else
But first I gotta know myself
But I don't know how
Why do I reach for the stars
When I don't have wings
To carry me that far

Gotta have roots before branches
To know who I am
Before I know who I wanna be
And faith to take chances
To live like I see
A place in this world for me

Sometimes I don't wanna feel
And forget the pain is real
Put my head in the clouds
Start to run then I fall
I can't get it all
Without my feet on the ground
There's always a seed
Before there's a rose
The more that it rains the more I will grow

Gotta have roots before branches
To know who I am
Before I know who I wanna be
And faith to take chances
To live like I see
A place in this world for me

Whatever comes I know how take it
Learn to be strong
I won't have to fake it
You want to stand there
When your coming through at best
There ain't nothing to beat the west
But I still be standin'
I will be standin

If I have roots before branches
And know who I am
Before I know who I want to be
And faith to take chances
To live like I see a place in this worldddd
For me

Have roots before branches
And know who I am
Before I know who I want to be
And faith to take chances
To live like I see a place in this worldddd
For me

Only oh oh
I tried to have roots before branches
Oh yeahhh
