In This Moment - Roots Meaning

Roots Lyrics
I thank you for all the lives you've led
I thank you for every word you said
I thank you for walking away
I thank you
I thank you for the promises you broke
For always watching, watching while I choke
I thank you for teaching...
-
The song is about being betrayed by a long-time "best friend". This was later confirmed by the band in several interviews.
-
I agree with past commentary... to me, it's about surviving and getting out of that "forever" relationship
-
This song reminds me of my father; and how strong I've had to become, being raised by a single, low income mother of 2.
-
I feel as though this song discusses the pain a toxic relationship can inflict on someone, and how revealing to get out of said relationship can be
-
It means to have gained strength from someone else's actions.
