From Where I Began Lyrics by Dylan Jakobsen

From Where I Began (artist: Dylan Jakobsen)

2016

Now I'm thinking 'bout leaving this place I call my roots
Stepping on down that highway in these boots
But I don't wanna be another one of what they want
I wanna write the songs I want to
And bust my ass to make it where I am
From where I began
I've been a wild horse
I've been a fast train
I've put some miles on this hungry soul of mine
Chasing the night with this gift that I've been given
Of a six string telling every story that I write
When you keep holding on to this thing for a lifetime
Play for tips in bars and strangers passing by
Oh it's taught me everything there is to offer
Yeah it's brought me up to where I stand tonight
Now I'm thinking 'bout leaving this place I call my roots
Stepping on down that highway in these boots
But I don't wanna be another one of what they want
I wanna write the songs I want to
And bust my ass to make it where I am
From where I began
I've been a fighter
And I'll take the last punch
For the things that I believe are what is right
And if you want it
You gotta work hard just to get it
Enough to spark a fire in your eyes
Now I'm thinking 'bout leaving this place I call my roots
Stepping on down that highway in these boots
But I don't wanna be another one of what they want
I wanna write the songs I want to
And bust my ass to make it where I am
From where I began
Well here's to the long drives and the places
Seen a million different faces
From the bars and the basements
To the nightclubs and the stadiums
All the chances that we're taking
And the memories that we're making
For a dream that you've gone chasing
Now I'm thinking 'bout leaving this place I call my roots
Stepping on down that highway in these boots
But I don't wanna be another one of what they want
I wanna write the songs I want to
And bust my ass to make it where I am
Yeah I'm gon'na bust my ass to make it where I am
And hell, it just might shape me up a better man
From where I began
