Roots Lyrics - R.o.o.t.s (route Of Overcoming The Struggle) - Flo Rida

I'm talking' bout roots 

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 roots (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeeeaaahh) 

I'm talking' bout roots (Yeah, Yeah, Yeeeaaahh) 

I'm talking bout roots 

Hey I can't be mad at what ya'll meet ahead

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

It ain't that beautiful to write on overcoming stress 

Top Ramen noodles thank happy 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 rip it, gotta sew it 

Yeah 

I'm talking' bout roots 

I can't hate where I'm from 

Photos 

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 roots (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeeeaaahh) 

I'm talking' bout roots (Yeah, Yeah, Yeeeaaahh) 

I'm talking bout roots 

Hey, still on my coupe but can't take 

Somebody had to be just to get away 

My sister had to leave, I respect her stayin safe 

Oh yea I had to grieve but I'm stronger to this day 

Pain, I can't ignore it, you might say I'm ignorant 

I'm mistakin' for courage, which 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 and 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 talking' bout roots 

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 roots (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeeeaaahh) 

I'm talking' bout roots (Yeah, Yeah, Yeeeaaahh) 

I'm talking bout roots 

Hey I know the seeds been planted 

It's damaging my soul but my dreams been granted 

That triple life towards, much deeper than nurse planet 

What could I want more than redoing I never planned it 

Gets no lower than a grabbin' on your feet 

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

A baller and a hitter all in the street 

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

Roots before the branches, roots before mansions 

Roots before your paper crazier than Marilyn Manson 

Roots with your grandparents, roots under your canvas 

Roots whether you black, white, or Spanish 

I'm talking' bout roots 

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 roots (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeeeaaahh) 

I'm talking' bout roots (Yeah, Yeah, Yeeeaaahh) 

I'm talking bout roots
