[Verse]
Dust on the boots dirt on the hands
Sweat-soaked dreams building a land
Sky so wide it could swallow me whole
But it’s love that anchors my soul
[Chorus]
Roots in the fire flames in the night
Family's the reason we fight this fight
Heartbeats pounding louder than the drum
Roots in the fire where we all come from
[Verse 2]
Mama's voice like a hymn in the air
Daddy's laugh echoing everywhere
Porch light glowing against the dark
Home’s the match that lights my spark
[Prechorus]
A thousand roads but they all lead back
To the gravel trail where the trees don’t crack
[Chorus]
Roots in the fire flames in the night
Family's the reason we fight this fight
Heartbeats pounding louder than the drum
Roots in the fire where we all come from
[Bridge]
Fiddle cries like a long-lost friend
Guitar screams but it won’t pretend
We’re bound together in this sacred dirt
Through every joy and every hurt
