From Where I Began Lyrics

Now I'm thinking 'bout leaving this place I call my roots,
Stepping on down that highway in these boots,
But I don't wanna be another one of what they want,
I wanna write the songs I want to,
And bust my ass to make it where I am,
From where I beganI've been a wild horse,
I've been a fast train,
I've put some miles on this hungry soul of mine,
Chasing the night with this gift that I've been given,
Of a six string telling every story that I write,
When you keep holding on to this thing for a lifetime,
Play for tips in bars and strangers passing by,
Oh it's taught me everything there is to offer,
Yeah it's brought me up to where I stand tonightNow I'm thinking 'bout leaving this place I call my roots,
Stepping on down that highway in these boots,
But I don't wanna be another one of what they want,
I wanna write the songs I want to,
And bust my ass to make it where I am,

From where I beganI've been a fighter,
And I'll take the last punch,
For the things that I believe are what is right,
And if you want it,
You gotta work hard just to get it,
Enough to spark a fire in your eyesNow I'm thinking 'bout leaving this place I call my roots,
Stepping on down that highway in these boots,
But I don't wanna be another one of what they want,
I wanna write the songs I want to,
And bust my ass to make it where I am,
From where I beganWell here's to the long drives and the places,
Seen a million different faces,
From the bars and the basements,
To the nightclubs and the stadiums,
All the chances that we're taking,
And the memories that we're making,
For a dream that you've gone chasingNow I'm thinking 'bout leaving this place I call my roots,
Stepping on down that highway in these boots,
But I don't wanna be another one of what they want,
I wanna write the songs I want to,
And bust my ass to make it where I am,
Yeah I'm gon' bust my ass to make it where I am,
And hell it just might shape me up a better man,
From where I began
