WHERE I'M FROM


I am from Baylor Hospital where i made a new friend.

Crying and screaming i think he needed a hand?

 

I am also from the easiest hellos and the hardest goodbyes.

To the oh how are you, and oh okay goodbye.

 

I am from my crazy, dysfunctional. and weird family.

From all our “i love you” to “No! i don't want to speak to you”.

 

I am from my horrible past, i have Linda to make sure of that.

Marco you know i love you, but now can you be a dad?

 

I am from all my mistakes but hey, who wouldn’t make mistakes?

To all my scars that had been set to the “hey pick your head up” or

to my last thought of saying “try one more time”.

 

I am from the okay you could have done better, but i know i did right.

Yes i done this and that, but i know in time i’ll be where i'm suppose to be at.
