about

I once wandered and wondered whether we are born where we are meant to be. So I wandered and wondered some more.

lyrics

I was born on the other side of earth and my mind keeps wandering astray, and the sharper the
hunger the greater the thirst, it’s eating me away. I’m a wanderer are you a wanderer too, an addiction I have to ensue, so together we’ll wander into the blue till my roots have something to say.

Wanderer, roots I’m just searching for my roots,
just another wanderer roots I’m just searching for my roots.
Gonna put on my walking boots roots roots roots my roots roots roots, oh boots roots roots my roots roots roots
boots roots roots my roots roots roots,
oh boots roots roots my roots.

Some of us were born into our final destination, no need to wander restlessly from nation to nation.
Let this be the proof of our indignation for a borderless world and man’s migration.

Roots wandering roots, oh roots wandering roots.
Gonna put on my walking boots till my roots find the earth that suits the fruits I’m trying to reap and I won’t stop until I have managed to fill this wandering mind to sleep.

Wanderer, roots I’m just searching for my roots, just another wanderer. roots I’m just searching for my roots.
Gonna put on my walking boots roots roots roots my roots roots roots, boots roots roots my roots roots roots, my boots roots roots my roots roots roots, boots roots roots my roots.

Living life full I’ll be laughing at fear don’t try to make me stay.
Mind is afar my heart will be near to my very first light of day.

But now I’m blinded by what I can’t see it’s growing from inside of me I’ll be wandering through my reverie till my roots have something to say.

Wanderer, roots I’m just searching for my roots, just another wanderer roots I’m just searching for my roots.
Gonna put on my walking boots roots roots roots my roots roots roots, boots roots roots my roots roots roots, my boots roots roots my roots roots roots, boots roots roots my rooooooots, my boots
roots roots my roots roots roots, boots roots roots my roots.
