Built This House

I got a yard

It's full of wildflowers

'Cause I'm a wild child

Yeah, I got my own style

I got a roof top view that don't stop

Got my name on the deed in the mailbox

I sleep easy in the bed I made

And I

Dream bigger than I did before

Took a while to feel this way

Brick by brick

Board by board

I built this house

From the foundation to the roof

It's all me

Baby, blood, sweat, and the truth

Solid ground and weatherproof

I had to

Tear the old one down

Was living in somebody else's plans for me

Locked in and I couldn't find the key

Now it's wall-to-wall, all me, yeah

I built this house

No, I couldn't

Ever be myself

Was like tryna make a home out of a hotel

So I checked out

Left it all behind

Had to start over but that's alright, 'cause

I built this house

From the foundation to the roof

It's all me

Baby, blood, sweat, and the truth

Solid ground and weatherproof

I had to

Tear the old one down

Was living in somebody else's plans for me

Locked in and I couldn't find the key

Now it's wall-to-wall, all me, yeah

I built this house

I built this house

Now I got a

Kitchen table big enough for all my friends

Peace of mind and wine in the fridge

You either take me as I am

Or you can't come in 'cause

I built this house, yeah

I built this house

From the foundation to the roof

It's all me

Baby, blood, sweat, and the truth

Solid ground and weatherproof

I had to

Tear the old one down

Was living in somebody else's plans for me

Locked in and I couldn't find the key

Now it's wall-to-wall, all me, yeah

I built this house, yeah

I built this house

I built this house

Oh, I built this house
