There's a big tree on my rooftop This gardenless city's acting too tough It's poetic for that plant pot To even dream about getting big enough
I've got a pot too small for my roots There's nothing I can do I'll simply have to bloom Far down below my capacity They won't water me I'm no priority
So I, I grow weeds To keep me company While I depend on the sky Begging for rain I spend my days tryna get by I must make somebody cry To survive Grow out of this life Make somebody cry To survive Grow out of this life
I've got a pot too small I must uproot I must uproot I must uproot
I'm a flower Won't you pick me? Pull me outta here Take my beauty I'll be your coward Turn me into a bouquet Find two lovers Then throw me away
'Cause I've got a pot too small for my roots There's nothing I can do I'll simply have to bloom Far down below my capacity They won't water me I'm no priority
So I, I grow weeds To keep me company While I depend on the sky Begging for rain I spend my days tryna get by I must make somebody cry To survive Grow out of this life Make somebody cry To survive Grow out of this life
I've got a pot too small I must uproot I must uproot I must uproot
I must make somebody cry To survive Grow out of this life Make somebody cry To survive Grow out of this life
I've got a pot too small I must uproot I must uproot I must up—
