New Roots

[Intro]
Caught in the shadow, lost in the game
Thought I was on top, but it all slipped away

[Verse 1]
Had my dreams stacked high, reaching for the sky
Build my empire, never thought I’d say goodbye
But the tables turned faster than I could understand
Lost it all, now I gotta find a new stand

[Pre-Chorus]
Fallen from grace, trying to find my way
Lessons learned the hard way, yesterday
Kids and man, they watched it all fade
Now I’m searching for a new family to save

[Chorus]
When the tables turn, and you thought you had it made
Lonely streets echo, promises betrayed
Gotta find someone else to hold me through
A new family, a new chance to break through

[Bridge]
Broken pieces on the floor, trying to rebuild
Heart out of the game, trying to forget the thrill
Walking solo, but I’m still alive
Looking for the next in line to survive

[Outro]
Turned around, new roads to choose
Won’t let the past define the hues
Looking for tomorrow, brighter than before
In new family roots, I’ll soar once more
