Raised on WIldflower

I wasn’t born in a mansion, never had silver spoons

Just Sunday skies and a porch with a view

Mama taught me grace with calloused hands

Daddy showed me love don’t always go as planned

I learned to pray under cotton candy clouds

Barefoot in a dress, spinnin’ ‘round and ‘round

Didn’t need much to feel alive

Just a gravel road and a clear blue sky

I was raised on wildflowers, not roses in a row

Taught to bloom where I’m planted, even when the winds blow

I’ve got thorns and I’ve got color, got roots that run deep

I bend, I break, but I still believe

You don’t need perfect to stand tall in the sun

I’m beauty and grit, all rolled into one

A little bit sweet, a whole lot of fire

That’s what you get when you’re raised on wildflowers

Learned to love with an open heart and a stubborn soul

I speak my truth and I won’t let go

I’ve been told I’m too much, not enough

But I don’t shrink just to be loved

I carry storms in my chest like thunder

But I dance in the rain like I’ve got nothin’ under

The weight of this world can try to steal my light

But I’ve bloomed through worse and still survive

I was raised on wildflowers, not roses in a row

Taught to bloom where I’m planted, even when the winds blow

I’ve got thorns and I’ve got color, got roots that run deep

I bend, I break, but I still believe

You don’t need perfect to stand tall in the sun

I’m beauty and grit, all rolled into one

A little bit sweet, a whole lot of fire

That’s what you get when you’re raised on wildflowers

Let the world chase polished and tame

I’ll take wild and proud over fortune or fame

You can’t put fences around a free soul

And I was born to grow where wild things grow

Yeah, I was raised on wildflowers, wind in my hair

Found my strength in the open air

I’ve got thorns and I’ve got color, got roots that run deep

I bloom in the cracks where most don’t see

I don’t need perfect, just a little bit of sky

A heart that’s brave and a reason why

A little bit sweet, a whole lot of fire

That’s what you get when you’re raised on wildflowers

Yeah, that’s what you get...

When you’re raised on wildflowers
