Arizona


For what it's worth

I love Arizona

I love all things that raised me 

I love the people who hurt me 

Who made me who I am

I love the hard lessons I've learned

I love the town I live in

Although, that doesn't mean it's my home

so, when you say “why move so far from your home?”

I'll say “that's subjective, I am a fan of growth”

I'm not friends with the people who have hurt

I won't repeat the lessons I've learned

I'll move from the town that I live in

and I'll stay out of Arizona

because that's where I come from

growth is where I go
