Before the dawn is when it seems most cold But as sure as the sun rises in the east, we know That the stream of evolution is a constant flow And the current evolution says that I should really go, oh
Don't you know that every seed, it wants to grow? We can't stay underground forever They can cut us off as soon as we begin to show What they don't know is that the roots still grow
When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up
But they can try with all of their might To push us down to the ground but I know we'll be all right, right? They mean to break my spirit through this exile But I can use this time to further refine and fortify my style
Don't you know that every seed, it wants to grow? We can't stay underground forever They can cut us off as soon as we begin to show What they don't know is that the roots still grow
When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up, yeah
The world that we're all living in Is in need of a plan for the brotherhood of man So, I'm off and running fast as I can And the antidote I'm bringing is the pen in my hand, man
Don't you know that every seed, it wants to grow? We can't stay underground forever They can cut us off as soon as we begin to show What they don't know is that the roots still grow
We're finally doing all the things we were meant for We're finally saying all the things we should say We're finally doing all the things we were meant for We're finally saying all the things we should say
When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up When the roots pop up, when the roots pop up
