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 'stead 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 'stead 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 'stead 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
