I am from the bobby pins
From the pony tails and barney
I am from the tree house my step dad built
Form the tire swing below
I am from the tall grass
Form the games of hide & seek and tag
I am from the baby dolls and Barbie dolls
I am from the blanket underneath my bed,
Which I still hold close when I'm feeling sad
Form the monkey my step dad bought me the day he left
I am from the crushes on boys
From the heart aces and heart breaks
That still hasn't changed.
I am from the failing dreams
Form the feelings of disbelieve
I am from the sadness
I am from the happiness
Form the mean big brother, that takes the roll of my father
I am from the friends that were like no other.
Remember Where We Come From
Were I'm From
