[Verse] My mother’s hands were rough but kind She taught me how to shape my mind The ground beneath my feet It knows my name My father’s voice was deep and clear He said “You stand for what you hold dear” And every choice I make echoes the same [Prechorus] From the soil I’ve grown Through the years I’ve known Every path they paved I call my own [Chorus] Roots of gold They keep me strong Through the dark They guide me on Every step Every stone I see It’s my family My faith My friends in me [Verse 2] My sister laughed Her joy was bright She showed me how to seek the light Even when the shadows chased the day My brother fought for what was right He taught me courage in the fight And how to find the words I need to say
