I Remember

I Remember Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'd never wish any of this on anyone or anything.,
Aw come on, you gotta try and look at things like me.
I never needed anything I got,
I never keep anything I have, what do I have?
Mostly things that'll never last.
[Pre-Chorus]
Then I think back...
[Chorus]
I remember when I first saw the country, I remember sleeping in the van.
Said goodbye to friends and family, cause they could never understand.
I remember jumping off of cliff tops, I remember playing with no one there.
Yeah, I knew if I became successful it wouldn't change who I am
'Cause where I've been, 'cause where I've been.
[Verse 2]
They wonder why I hide myself from everyone,
from everything, man come on,
You wouldn't last a day as me.
Everyone loves me for my past, but they always hate me in the present.
Why can't you just meet me somewhere in the middle?
[Pre-Chorus]
It's in the hardest times we grow the most.
[Chorus]
I remember when I first saw the country, I remember sleeping in the van.
Said goodbye to friends and family, cause they could never understand.
I remember jumping off of cliff tops, I remember playing with no one there.
Yeah, I knew if I became successful it wouldn't change who I am
'Cause where I've been, 'cause where I've been!
[Hook]
Speeding up, to slow down,
Side glances around this crowd all at me.
There must be something I can't see, so tell me.
Hold me up, help me out,
As I circle around what makes me happy.
There isn't one place that I can be without leaving,
This is my life.
[Bridge]
I remember when I first saw the country, I remember sleeping in the van.
Said goodbye to friends and family, cause they could never understand.
They don't understand, they don't understand!
[Outro]
I remember jumping off of cliff tops, I remember playing with no one there.
Yeah, I knew if I became successful it wouldn't change who I am.
I remember the coast of California, I remember trucks stops cross the land.
Never kept too many idols cause we were busy being them.
I remember waking up in Georgia, I remember quitting my last job.
Yeah I knew if I became successful it wouldn't change who I was,
Cause where I've been, cause where I've been.
