10.Roots Before Branches(Glee Cast Version)
Lyricist：Nikki AndersAdam Anders
Writer(s)：Nikki AndersAdam Anders
So many things
To do and say
But I can't seem
To find my way
But I wanna know how
I know
I'm meant
For something else
But first
I gotta find myself
But I don't know how
Oh, why do
I reach for the stars
When I don't have wings
To carry me that far？
I 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
(Sometimes
I don't wanna feel)
And forget the pain
Is real
(And forget the pain
Is real)
Put my head
In the clouds
Oh, start to run
And then I fall
(start to run
And then I fall)
Thinkin'
I can't get it all
Without my feet
On the ground
(Seein'
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
I 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 to take it
Learn to be strong
I won't have to fake it
Oh, you're understandin'
The wind can come
And do its best
Blow me north, and south,
East and west
But I'll still
Be standing
I'll be standing
If I have
Roots before branches
To know who I am (To know who I am)
Before I know
Who I'm gonna be
And faith
To take chances
To live like I see
A place in this world
I gotta have
Roots before branches
To know who I am
Before I know
Who I wanna be
And faith
To take chances
And live like I see
A place in this world
For me
I gotta have
Roots before branches
