Where I'm From
I’m from a mother’s womb
 
 That wasn’t supposed to be
 I’m from Lisa and Gino
 
 But, mostly Lisa and Robert
 I’m from many dresses
 
 Specifically one
 
 
 Sparkled more every time it was worn
 I’m from dogs, cats, and little rodents
 
 All easily annoyed by me
 I’m from the BIG news
 
 “It’s girl!” Three times
 
 And “It’s a boy!” just once
 I’m from French fries from Mcdonalds
 
 Taste so good!
 
 
 All over the car seat
 I’m from ice cream at 3 o’clock in the morning
 
 And coffee at 6
 
 
 Always decaf
 I’m from a family that was great
 
 They knew it
 
 
 Wouldn’t trade them for the world
 I’m from fighting and making up
 
 Forgive and forget
 
 
 Most of all
 I’m from growing up and trying
 
 Trying my best just to be ME!
