Uproot Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a fig tree on my rooftop
This gardenless city's acting too tough
It's poetic for that plant pot
To even dream about getting big enough

[Pre-Chorus]
I've got a pot too small for my roots
There's nothing I can do
I'll simply have to bloom
Far down below my capacity
They won't water me
I'm no priority
[Chorus]
So I, I grow weeds
To keep me company
While I depend on the sky
Begging for rain
I spent my days tryna get by
I must make somebody cry to survive
Grow out of this life
Make somebody cry to survive
Grow out of this life
I've got a pot too small
I must uproot
I must uproot
I must uproot

[Verse 2]
I'm a flower, won't you pick me?
Pull me outta here, take my beauty
I'll be your coward, turn me into a bouquet Find two lovers, then throw me away

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I've got a pot too small for my roots
There's nothing I can do
I'll simply have to bloom
Far down below my capacity
They won't water me
I'm no priority
[Chorus]
So I, I grow weeds
To keep me company
While I depend on the sky
Begging for rain
I spent my days tryna get by
I must make somebody cry to survive
Grow out of this life
Make somebody cry to survive
Grow out of this life
I've got a pot too small
I must uproot
I must uproot
I must up—

[Outro]
I must make somebody cry to survive
Grow out of this life
Make somebody cry to survive
Grow out of this life
I've got a pot too small
I must uproot
I must uproot
I must up—
