when you're living in the slum
The neighborhood was kinda tough
that's all I knew, right?
only earning him a few times
And I don't claim that the ghetto
Some of the nicest people was there,
when I walked into the market
I can see how far I've come since
It's all cause of you and what you just did
I will never forget you place
And everything you've done
The place that you brought me from
And everything you've done
And I remember going to school
We was on the bridge one time I got stuck
I heard a loud noise, engine blown up
Gotta push the car, caught a tow truck
Man it's kinda hard, but you know what?
I've come so far because of your love
At 18 I moved out and tried to grow up
it through the next month
My jobs pay me like, less than 6 bucks
Time and time again, I saw you show up
The place that you brought me from
The place that you brought me from
Had to put the TV on a box
The first year married was the hardest
Crazy neighbors always fighting,
We had each other though,
Even when we scraped up like 33 bucks
It's kinda sad to see but we was like,
My wife's car keeps breaking down
We come so far since then,
Ten years later I got a house
It was so good, just the her and I
It's what I've seen like,
brought me now in my life
The place that you brought me from
In everything you've done
The place that you brought me from
