As an adoptee I faced a common lifelong struggle to form an authentic sense of self that growing up away from a bloodline can foster. There is a symbolic and literal search for roots that became a crucial part of my journey toward wholeness. Early in my adult life I had to reconcile I may never know the story of my origin or who my ancestors are.

As an adoptee I faced a common lifelong struggle to form an authentic sense of self that growing up away from a bloodline can foster. There is a symbolic and literal search for roots that became a crucial part of my journey toward wholeness. Early in my adult life I had to reconcile I may never know the story of my origin or who my ancestors are. But somehow I felt they knew who I was and this gave me comfort. As an adoptee we have many questions about who we are and where we came from. This song explores those questions and feelings of becoming and finding the breadth an adoptee's true self.
