Don't you say that this ain't real
I feel it pulling at my heels
Don't you claim that I can't feel
I'm not made of stainless steel
Roots
I don't have them and that's ok
Roots
So maybe I will have them someday

I bought a big house in the country
I live there now, does nothing for me
Bought a fast car, white and sporty
When I look back I was pretty poorly
I've had my best friend right beside me
Big decisions didn't come lightly
A few regrets that live inside me
Wish I'd done things way more kindly
Don't you say that this ain't real
I feel it pulling at my heels
Don't you claim that I can't feel
I'm not made of stainless steel
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I spent a long year in a small van
Didn't feel my life disappearing
Miss my family, I miss her friends
I know I made those mistakes
It's sad I woke up too late for us
I know it's hard now, I know I'm f*cked up
Don't you say that this ain't real
I feel it pulling at my heels
Don't you claim that I can't feel
I'm not made of stainless steel
Roots
I don't have them and that's ok
Roots
Maybe I will have them someday
Roots
Over and over
And over
And over
Over and over
And over
And over
Don't you say that this ain't real
I feel it pulling at my heels
Don't you claim that I can't feel
I'm not made of stainless steel
