Built This House

[Verse 1]

I got a yard

It’s full of wildflowers

'Cause I'm a wild child, yeah, I got my own style

Got a rooftop 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

[Chorus]

I built this house

From the foundation to the roof

It’s all me, baby

Blood, sweat and the truth

Solid ground and weather proof

I had to tear the old one down

Was livin' 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

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

I built this house

From the foundation to the roof

It’s all me, baby

Blood, sweat and the truth

Solid ground and weather proof

I had to tear the old one down

Was livin' 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

[Bridge]

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

[Chorus]

I built this house

From the foundation to the roof

It’s all me, baby

Blood, sweat and the truth

Solid ground and weather proof

I had to tear the old one down

Was livin' 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

[Outro]

I built this house

I built this house

Oh, I built this house
