Lyrics

I’ve been working on my family tree
Not thinking about what will be
Wondering what came before
I know it means so much more

Rich roots are calling
Rich roots are calling me

All these names I didn’t know
Yet inside me their blood flows
So many people it’s hard to track
I feel them pulling me back and back

Rich roots are calling
Rich roots are calling me

They’re telling me their stories
My precious family tree
They’re all inside of me

I can’t imagine what they went through
If I were them, what would I do?
So grateful for what they’ve given me
I hope they’re looking down, and like what they see

Rich roots are calling
Rich roots are calling me
