Where Im from
Where I come from
I come from a city of trouble
Where violence terrorizes the people
Where survival was your only hope
Where friendships are fake and money is the way to success
I come from a humble troubled family
I come from a mom that’s strict and intolerant but loving and caring at the same time
Where cigarettes was her solution to stress
A mom that taught me morals and values but most importantly respect
I come from a dad who`s stubborn and addicted to alcohol
A dad that loved his children and soccer
A dad that taught me to love soccer, enjoy life and smile in the worse moments
I come from a neighborhood contaminated by drugs and alcohol
Where troubled children lived with remorse and sadness
Where hanging out with each other was a way of comfort
Where life was difficult but we manage to live with hard work
Where humility mattered to become someone in the world
I come from an influential and hardworking brother
Where soccer was his way of life
A brother that taught me no matter the obstacles on life
Never give up and outcome then
A brother that influenced my way of life
A brother that became someone I look up to
That no matter what will always be there for me
I come from a grandmother I never met
A grandmother whose presence I feel
Someone that motivates me never to give up
Who`s see me cry when I was in the dust
That understands my sadness and worries
She`s the reason I can`t give up
I come from a puppy that gave my life a ray of happiness
That`s there to cheer me up when I’m upset
A puppy that only wants love and gives me the most
A puppy that became my reason to smile
That’s where I came from
