Roots in the Dust

Lyrics

[INTRO] Fingers flicker, light glows in the dark, Stairs of sound climb like a broken spark. [VERSE 1] I walk through the city, shadows in my rear, Concrete whispers secrets, but they don’t hear. Every step a story, every heartbeat a beat, I’m the wanderer who’s found her own retreat. [PRE‑CHORUS] No chains, no maps, just a rhythm in my chest, I’m the echo that refuses to rest. [CHORUS] I’m rootless, I’m soaring, I’m a storm unconfined, I’m a fire, I’m a tide, I’m a mind left behind. I’m a leaf that doesn’t need the soil to grow, I’m a spark that ignites from the glow. [VERSE 2] I’ve seen the faces, the dreams that fade, The clocks that tick in a masquerade. I’ve tasted the silence that screams the loudest, The love that’s hidden under the loudest. [PRE‑CHORUS] Every broken beat, every echo, every sigh, I turn them into wings that reach the sky. [CHORUS] I’m rootless, I’m soaring, I’m a storm unconfined, I’m a fire, I’m a tide, I’m a mind left behind. I’m a leaf that doesn’t need the soil to grow, I’m a spark that ignites from the glow. [BRIDGE] In the silence I hear the rhythm, In the silence I feel the freedom. I’m not a shadow of something else, I’m a story that will never end. [CHORUS] I’m rootless, I’m soaring, I’m a storm unconfined, I’m a fire, I’m a tide, I’m a mind left behind. I’m a leaf that doesn’t need the soil to grow, I’m a spark that ignites from the glow. [OUTRO] The city fades to stars, I stay in the light, Rootless, yet whole, in the endless night.
