Your Safe Hands

album: Rooted.
by Sasha Lewis

thank you for seeing it in me
thank you for holding me up when I'm down
thank you for helping me move on
thank you for inspiring me to
pick up my heels and light the fire under them
pick up my heels and light the fire under them

you helped me be ten times the lady I am today
helped me see the burning passion inside of me
this is who I'm meant to be
and I want to thank you
thank you for giving me something to believe in again
whoa ah ah oh oh
whoa ah ah oh oh

you know when you fall real hard and it hurts real bad
sticks and stones may break my bones
but it's your safe hands
that will hold me up when I'm down
hold me up when I'm down
your safe hands
your safe hands

you helped me be ten times the lady I am today
helped me see the burning passion inside of me
this is who I'm meant to be
and I want to thank you
thank you for giving me something to believe in again
whoa ah ah oh oh
your safe hands
whoa ah ah oh oh
your safe hands
whoa ah ah oh oh

your safe hands

Roots
time: 2:42
album: Rooted.
by Sasha Lewis

You place yourself in extraordinary ways
turn all the heads in the wrong kind of way
with aggression in this tension you keep everyone at bay
in this tone you feel suddenly alone

I don't blame you at all, at all
your roots have been lifted and your trying to find the soil
you just can't shake this dirt
you just can't shake this dirt

the steps you have taken the choices you have made
are from regression that left you hangin there
your mamma didn't hold ya, your daddy didn't care
in this tone you feel suddenly alone

I don't even mind, at all
if you wanna rest your weary head down hear for awhile
and grow your roots back
grow your roots back


Still Photograph
time: 3:37 
album: Rooted.
by Sasha Lewis

your standing still like a photograph
taken on a lonely day
what am I suppose to do
hold my hands out for your fall
hold my hands out for your fall

just move closer to you
I don't know how to

breath me in, breath me out, say goodbye
hold me tight, lose your grip, say goodnight
breathe, just breath, just breath, just breath

my allusions of our solutions
is a perfect photo print of you
holding your hands out for my fall
but I'm standing still like a photograph
taken on a lonely day

 breath me in, breath me out, say goodbye
hold me tight, lose your grip, say goodnight
breath me in, breath me out, say goodbye
hold me tight, lose your grip, say goodnight
breath oh breath
breathe, just breath, just breath, just breath


Super Girl
time: 3:22
album: Rooted.
by Sasha Lewis

it's a burning passion inside of me like I am super girl
when I tie on that big red cape no one can hurt me
have you ever had that one great thing that kept you safe at night
from the boogie man that lurks your halls and gave you such a fright

I can feel it clenching in my teeth
I can feel it trembles in my knees

I can I can I can feel it gaining on me oh
I can I can I can feel it chasing me

can you see the shapes the shadows make
when your alone in your room
you hold them close inside of you
not knowing right from wrong
oh right from wrong, right from wrong

I can I can I can feel it gaining on me oh
I can I can I can feel it chasing me

it's a funny feeling when you find these things that show you the way out
for me it's words and sounds and six steel strings that turned my life around
gave me the strength to hold these things that I did not know
in this story I am super girl and I save you from the villains
that lurk your halls and prey apon your dreams

I can feel it clenching in my teeth
I can feel it trembles in my knees
I can feel it ground pounding my feet
I can feel it

I can I can I can out run the boogie man oh
I can I can I can fly like super man oh
I can I can I can out run the boogie man oh
I can I can I can fly like super man


Following One
time: 3:31
album: Rooted.
by Sasha Lewis

your fragile and young think you've got everything under your thumb
mercy child you don't know anything but the mess that you bring
and the pain from your past
oh the pain, the pain from your past

heavily guarded, but easily influenced you become the poster child
to this fake facade of the next best thing that society brings
society brings

no no no, no no, no no no , no no
I won't go the way you tell me
no no no, no no, no no no , no no
I'll tred these waters till I reach land
no no no, no no, no no no , no no, no no no, no no

harnessed my tone,
guided by my gut,
humbled by the packs

following one like the propaganda on your tongue
mercy child you don't know anything but the mess that you bring
and the ghosts from your past,
oh the ghosts from your past

no no no, no no, no no no , no no
I won't go the way you tell me
no no no, no no, no no no , no no
I'll tred these waters till I reach land
no no no, no no, no no no , no no, no no no, no no
no no no, no no no


Until Your Home
time: 2:42
album: Rooted.
by Sasha Lewis

she sits there and she mopes
like she's got nothing to live for anymore
I don't know what it is about her
that makes me want to get down on my knees
and pray for her well being

keep moving on
until your home

he sits there and he cries
not feeling like the man he was to be anymore
your doing the best you can
to feed your babes and give your wife this hand
keep your job and answer to Uncle Sam

keep moving on
until your home
until your home

home home home whoa oh oh oh
home


Monsters
time: 3:20
album: Rooted.
by Sasha Lewis

are you falling down the cliffs that you built
and there's no root for you to grab ahold
to stop you from falling in your own hell
what are you gonna do now that there's no peace in this
what are you gonna do now that there's no peace in this

now your time only has a tick and no tock
where's your safety net when your in despair
trying to have peace within yourself
running down the same damn path and there's nobody there
but monsters under your stairs

you hold on tight to what puts you in knots
don't let any one in cuz your at a loss
you swallowed you key so now your hard to reach
what are you gonna do now that there's no peace in this
what are you gonna do now that there's no peace in this

now your time only has a tick and no tock
where's your safety net when your in despair
trying to have peace within yourself
running down the same damn path and there's nobody there
but monsters

now your time only has a tick and no tock
where's your safety net when your in despair
trying to have peace within yourself
running down the same damn path and there's nobody there
but monsters under your stairs


Excuse Me
time: 3:32
album: Rooted.
by Sasha Lewis

excuse me if I don't live up to these standards you built
excuse me if I don't fit the profile that see
I don't think this would be healthy for myself
I do think I'll do what's best for my soul
excuse me if I have mistakenly led you on
my goal here was not to leave you with this doubt

and oh silly me I left my heart on my sleeve
and oh silly me I misplaced myself again
whats a girl to do when all she has is the blues
I was such a nieve girl inside my little world

excuse me if I have been some what rude to you
excuse me if I have somewhere I can sink a stone
I don't think this wall has built itself by bricks
my heart has spiit in two but now I've gained one more
excuse me if I have loved you more then you thought
my goal here was not to leave you with this doubt

and oh silly me I left my heart on my sleeve
and oh silly me I misplaced myself again

and oh silly me I left my heart on my sleeve
and oh silly me I misplaced myself again
whats a girl to do when all she has is the blues
I was such a nieve girl inside my little world

but thank you for showing me how cruel it can be
and thank you for showing me how beautiful it can be


Reasons
time:3:27
album: Rooted.
by Sasha Lewis

I undress you in my mind
you have a tight grip on this tension
your lips look like they taste like honey and wine
bitter and sweet wrapped in one

you play it so cool like nothing phased you
I come a knockin at your door
say do you want to run as fast as we ca
leave this one horse town in search of a better life

search for a better life oh oh oh
search for a better life oh oh oh

I memorize the lines on your hands
as the words drip drip drip
from your lips
I embrace the rhyme and the reasons
that you feel
presentation for the reasons
presentation for the reasons

you play it so cool like nothing phased you
I come a knockin at your door
say do you want to run as fast as we ca
leave this one horse town in search of a better life

search for a better life oh oh oh
search for a better life oh oh oh
search for a better life oh oh oh
search for a better life
search for a better life
