Send "Roots" ringtone to your cell

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s. i can't hate where i'm from

'cause where i'm from made me

('cause where i'm from made me)

I came from the bottom of the slums

But now i got me me that's because of my r.o.o.t.s.

(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s.

(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s.

Hey i can't be mad at what y'all meet ahead

I don't regret my ghetto struggle due to my success

It ain't that beautiful to write on overcomin' stress

Top ramen noodles thank pappy for the fact i was fed

Look at me now but all before hey mr. skid row

The dirty south ain't just a name the way i've been poor

The projects burnin' white i call it gizmo

Went from a gun to them cars in a jigga video

Can't find a meal to a mil only god know it

No record deal to a deal i work hard for it

Can i live to i'm livin' like my momma told it?

Before you reap it gotta sow it yeah

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s. i can't hate where i'm from

'cause where i'm from made me

('cause where i'm from made me)

I came from the bottom of the slums

But now i got me me that's because of my r.o.o.t.s.

(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s.

(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s.

Hey still on my coupe but can't take

Somebody had to be just for me to get away

My sister had to leave i respect her stayin' safe

Oh yeah i had to grieve but i'm stronger till this day

Pain i can't ignore it you might say i'm ignorant

I'm mistakin' for courage victory so gorgeous

Make it through two bush i can make it through any forest

Hunger gave me the wish but the bottom is so important

37 ave. 187 street

Miami karat city now i'm part of a legacy

I'm thankful for the hood what is love without jealousy?

There's only five letters really help me

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s. i can't hate where i'm from

'cause where i'm from made me

('cause where i'm from made me)

I came from the bottom of the slums

But now i got me me that's because of my r.o.o.t.s.

(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s.

(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s.

Hey i thought the seed's been planted

It's damagin' my soul but my dreams been granted

That triple life towards much deeper than nurse planet

What could i want more than redoin' i never planned it?

Gets no lower than a grabbin' at your feet

A man will stand for nothin' if he fall for the feet

A baller and a hitter all in the street

If you look beneath the sand then we all need a crease

R.o.o.t.s. before the branches r.o.o.t.s. before the mansions

R.o.o.t.s. before your paper crazier than marilyn manson

R.o.o.t.s. with your grandparents r.o.o.t.s. under your canvas

R.o.o.t.s. whether you black white or spanish

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s. i can't hate where i'm from

'cause where i'm from made me

('cause where i'm from made me)

I came from the bottom of the slums

But now i got me me that's because of my r.o.o.t.s.

(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s.

(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

I'm talkin' 'bout r.o.o.t.s.
