Alice Merton – No Roots (Lyrics)

No Roots" is a song by German-Canadian-English singer-songwriter Alice Merton. It was released as her debut single on 21 July 2016. The song was co-written by Merton and producer Nicolas Rebscher.

The song is about Merton's experience of having no permanent home. She was born in Germany to a German mother and an Irish father, and she grew up in Canada. She has also lived in England and Germany. The song's lyrics reflect the feeling of being constantly uprooted and never having a place to call home.
