A look back over time is an odd necessity
And the song of melody
Is the one that you should keep.

With a light shining strong
And a book of all my needs,
I can stay alive and I,
I can stay up on my feet.

They always said that I should,
Should keep up the self esteem.
Well hey look at me now,
I'm gonna go look back on my roots
Well see.

See what this place has done to me.
I'm gonna find my way back home,
Back back to my roots.

A common mistake is
To think that you can change well,
Hey, hey, hey,
I'll show you, yeah, yeah...

It's an unfortunate twist
To look into your eyes,
And to see that your the same old thing
And think about the thing that
I will be going through it over again.

A look back over time
Is just something I need and
I'm gonna get it back.

They always said that I should,
Should keep up the self esteem.
Well hey look at me now,
I'm gonna go look back on my roots
Well see.

See what this place has done to me.
I'm gonna find my way back home,
Back back to my roots.

A look back over time
Is just something
I will keep and I
I sure need it.

So watch me now
