Made From The Dirt

I was raised in Missouri where the hills shadow out the light
Between the broke and the fix-it, there was leaving written in my eyes

It wasn't hard, it wasn't easy
Spreading my wings like shotgun BBs

If you see me blazing trails instead of taking the highway
Leaning into love even when it hurts
I never fit the mold, so I did it my way
I may be fighting, but I didn't swing first
So, if I'm pushing to make room
Shooting for the moon, putting in the work
It's 'cause I was made from the dirt
Came up from the ground
Born to bloom when I get knocked down

So, let the rounds keep coming like a summer thunder rolling in
I could turn the other cheek, but I'd rather take it on the chin

So, let it rain with the windows open
Spaces are wide and I keep on growing

If you see me blazing trails instead of taking the highway
Leaning into love even when it hurts
I never fit the mold, so I did it my way
I may be fighting, but I didn't swing first
So, if I'm pushing to make room
Shooting for the moon, putting in the work
It's 'cause I was made from the dirt
Came up from the ground
Born to bloom when I get knocked down
I get knocked down

If you see me blazing trails instead of taking the highway
Leaning into love even when it hurts
I never fit the mold, so I did it my way
I may be fighting, but I didn't swing first
So, if I'm pushing to make room
Shooting for the moon, putting in the work
It's 'cause I was made from the dirt
Came up from the ground
Born to bloom when I get knocked down
I get knocked down

It's 'cause I was made from the dirt
Came up from the ground
Born to bloom when I get knocked down
