[intro] [Verse] Your hands are worn like the ground we tread Lines tell stories of things unsaid Eyes like storms that refuse to break You carried the weight when everything shakes [Chorus] You’re the strength I never knew I’d need Roots so deep you made me believe In the fire in the fight in the way we stand Dear Mother you built this land [Verse 2] Torn jeans dirt-streaked hands so tough You held the line when life got rough Through the screams through the silence so loud You’re my foundation you made me proud [Bridge] Behind the curtain you hid your pain Tears hit the earth like cold hard rain But you rose up fists clenched to the sky A warrior’s heart who never asked why [Chorus] You’re the strength I never knew I’d need Roots so deep you made me believe In the fire in the fight in the way we stand Dear Mother you built this land [Bridge] [Verse 3] Through empty nights and bitter days You fought the world and paved my way Your voice lingers like a melody Every note’s a lesson you taught to me [Chorus] You’re the strength I never knew I’d need Roots so deep you made me believe In the fire in the fight in the way we stand Dear Mother you built this land You’re the strength I never knew I’d need Roots so deep you made me believe In the fire in the fight in the way we stand Dear Mother you built this land [Outro]
