VERSE 1
See t[Em]his one's for my people
From the [C]backwoods to the steeple
From my d[G]addy and that preacher man
That t[D]aught me to run from evil
From the p[Em]eople that I'm still so cool with
And the p[C]eople that I went to school with
From the b[G]oys I ran around and stomped them g[D]rounds and broke them rules with
[Em]This one's for my family and the w[C]ay that I was raised
And now my li[G]fe's another city, another pi[D]cture, another stage
But I h[Em]ope you know I miss ya
And p[C]art of me's still with ya
And no ma[G]tter where I go or what I [D]do I won't forget ya
(CHORUS)
VERSE 2
[Em]This is for the one's who believed in me
For the o[C]ne's who took the time to breathe the life in me
You go[G]t my heart beating inside of me
You m[D]ade me what I tried to be
For the o[Em]ne's who love my music
Said you could [C]do it, if you choose this
So we dr[G]eamed big and we worked hard
Now we g[D]ot the whole world cruisin'
