Roots

Teal was a color in my mind
Kinda soft a touch of just unkind
It was a mix of emotions in my past
The things I dragged the things I had
I wish I
Manifested more than just my time
Saw the truth not hid behind the lies
You were the thunder but I was the lightening that woke you up from this place

Tell me baby does it bother you
That I'm no longer blue
Tell me baby does it bother you
That I'm feeling green
Tell me baby does it bother you that I'm growing my roots
Growing my roots

I used to think I'd never leave this place
Not because I couldn't leave
I never wanted to reach out in front of me
I never wanted to see the things I need
I can't control my voice alone
I need to branch out of the space I'm in
Space I'm in

Tell me baby does it bother you
That I'm no longer blue
Tell me baby does it bother you
I'm feeling green
Tell me baby does it bother you that I'm growing my roots

And now I know I needed to shed the skin you once touched
You never liked the space I gave myself it's too much
But I think you should know yourself
Find peace in your mental health

Tell me baby does it bother you
That I'm no longer blue
Tell me baby does it bother you
That I'm feeling green
Tell me baby does it bother you that I'm growing my roots
Growing my roots
