what made me, me

I come from Paia 

From loud yelling and barking

Skateboard and swimming 

The ocean so close and full 

From doing chores and getting yelled at 

My home

 

I come from the dry lava rock fields of ulupalakua

From dirt biking and quading through the mountains 

To even taking secret road down to the ocean 

From the monster of a priority 

Fill with fruit tree and trees taller the some builds 

 

I come from the beach 

Form the worm sand to the cold water 

From bodyboarding to surfing

And just having great times with my friends and family

Its like my second home

 

I come from surfing

From traveling all over with family and friends 

The competitive contests

From the frustrating and exhilarating moments 

Wins and losses
