Verse 1 Old oak tree standing tall through the storm, Grandma’s quilt still keeping my heart warm. These dirt roads raised me, taught me how to stand, When the world gets heavy, I dig my heels in the land. Pre-Chorus City lights may call, but they don’t know my name, I’ve got calloused hands and a soul that’s still untamed. Every scar’s a story, every tear a seed, Planted in this soil where my spirit’s freed. Chorus Roots run deep, deeper than the pain, Through the flood and fire, I rise again. No storm can break what the good Lord made, In these mountains, in this blood, my foundation’s laid. Roots run deep, like the river runs wide, I may bend, but I’ll never hide. When the wind starts howling and the night feels long, I hold on tight — roots run deep and strong! Verse 2 Mama worked the garden from dawn till the dew, Daddy taught us honor in everything we do. Neighbors still show up when the barn needs raising, In a world gone crazy, this love is amazing. Pre-Chorus We don’t chase the spotlight, we chase the morning light, Simple living keeps the wrong things out of sight. Every lesson whispered under that old front porch light, Keeps me grounded when I lose my fight. Chorus Roots run deep, deeper than the pain, Through the flood and fire, I rise again. No storm can break what the good Lord made, In these mountains, in this blood, my foundation’s laid. Roots run deep, like the river runs wide, I may bend, but I’ll never hide. When the wind starts howling and the night feels long, I hold on tight — roots run deep and strong! Bridge Maybe the world forgot what really matters most, Family, faith, and the ones we love the most. But I’ll keep singing till my voice gives out, Reminding every heart what home’s about… Final Chorus Roots run deep, let the whole world see, This is who I am, this is where I’ll always be. Through the changing seasons and the trials we face, I’ll stand tall and proud in this sacred place. Roots run deep, yeah they’re holding me tight, Guiding me home through the darkest night. When tomorrow comes and the doubts come along, I’ll remember — roots run deep and strong!
