Littleroot Lyrics

Couple of refugees came a long way

Sacrificed everything for the states

In God we trust, from communist

Tried to make a new life from out the dust

They were so determined adamantly

To birth the first gen like Adam and Eve

Flew a plane away, pulled out the weeds

Stepped on new soil, planted a seed

Who'd knew with a new life

They would make another

Earned their titles father and mother

All of their love poured out like water

When they grew two sons and a daughter

Then they looked up at each other's faces

Said their sacrifice cannot be wasted

The kids have a better chance than us to make it

With everything they did they'd say this

Gotta get it for em, gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta gotta get it for em

Who would've thought that misery would birth

A little sapling with history of dirt

A new blessing that was given by the church

That he'd one day bring every little kid worth

With little roots, he would grow into a spruce

When he's branching out, turning green like it's Bruce

Banner he would raise when he gets it with his youth

After all the growth's done, he'll pay 'em with the fruit

Who woulda thought that he made it big time

New friends, new peers, on an incline

Can he do it, sure he can like a ninja

Cuz the work he got was reminiscent

Super thankful for the price they paid

Mother's Day, Father's Day, everyday

Thinking all about their struggle they would bring

Every time he's on the hustle he would sing

Gotta get it for em, gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta get it for em

Gotta get it for em, gotta gotta get it for em
