I left my mother feelin' sick in a bedroom My daddy told me, "Son, you best grow up" I told my friends, they could find me on the internet 'Cause somehow this place just ain't enough Collect call from a brother in the lock up He said he paid his dues but could I pay them too My best friend is stealin' money from my pocket I guess it's time to go, and they said "Who, who are you?" "Who are you really anymore?" I said, "Who, who am I, I don't know what I'm heading for" I said, "All I know, all I know, I'm leaving again" I said, "Goodbye, so long", to my, my neighborhood And I know, I know, I'll see you again 'Cause I'll always, always come back To my neighborhood, to my neighborhood I threw my troubles and my bags in the back seat Pulled up the drive, for one last look She was standin' in the doorway lonely, after leanin' in close She said, "Who, who are you?" "Who are you really anymore?" I said, "Who, who am I, I don't know what I'm fighting for" All I know, all I know, I'm leaving again I said, "Goodbye, so long", to my, my neighborhood And I know, I know I'll see you again 'Cause I'll always, always come back To my neighborhood, to my neighborhood, to my neighborhood Came back last night just to see you It's been too long but nothing's change I'm trying to be the one that you can't be Baby these dreams they all to blame I can hear it in your voice that you do know It's not a choice for me to stay So long, goodbye to the neighborhood To my neighborhood All I know, all I know, I'm leaving again I said, "Goodbye, so long", to my, my neighborhood And I know, I know I'll see you again 'Cause I'll always, always come back To my neighborhood, my neighborhood, my neighborhood, my neighborhood
