Back To The Roots
S.P.A.D. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Zippin' up my boots
Goin' back to my roots
Yeah

To the place of my birth
Back down to earth.

I've been standing in the rain
Drenched and soaked with pain

Tired of short time benefits
And being exposed to the elements.
I'm homeward bound
Got my head turned around.

Zippin' up my boots
Goin' back to my roots
Yeah

To the place of my birth
Back down to earth.
Ain't talkin' 'bout no roots in the land

Talkin' 'bout the roots in the man.
I feel my spirit gettin' old
It's time to recharge my soul
I'm zippin' up my boots
Goin' back to my roots
Yeah

To the place of my birth
Back down to earth.

Zippin' up my boots
Goin' back to my roots.




To the place of my birth
Back down to earth.

Just heartbreaking for this patient, but a great, courageous effort to help him. Wish it were longer, wish there were more, hope there’s a sequel. Bravo! Loan.

Elizabeth Pontelo

Que saudade que estava de ver um vídeo assim 🥂🇧🇷

I have been using Dermalmd acne treatment cream on lower back, shoulders, inner thighs where my jeans cause acne build up and even on my chest. It never fails to decrease acne or cause any irritation. By far the best acne treatment I have found.

Foi bom, porém muito curto. E eu aqui estou após um ano assistindo novamente em 04/03/23

I’m so glad to see you back. I hope your family is doing well too.

AnimalWhisperer it’s not that, you just can’t make claims like that on a legit channel. If you look under the video tabs, you will see if they have only recent postings or in Loan’s case, they go back over a year. We can also see the ones that we have watched over 12 months ago. It’s very easy to put two and two together and come up with five.

AnimalWhisperer you have to leave YouTube for this to open into another app...bit dangerous, you never know what you are opening? Where are you getting these links from? Are they just popping up on your feed?

Kay Reading

AnimalWhisperer it’s a different channel. Where does it say that it’s Loan’s channel?

Givulinovich

AnimalWhisperer The clickbait game with that one is crazy. It doesn’t even look human.
