Build My Home by Kathryn Legendre Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, where I come from
Won't pronounce the name
Another small town lost to the corporate game
I couldn't wait to leave
As a kid, I ran
I burned I-35 and never looked back

[Chorus]
Said I gotta get out while I still can
Try to figure out who the hell I am
I'm proud of my name and where I'm from
I'd rather build my home then be made by one

[Verse 2]
Never will forget
The place where I was raised
Since my parents left, it's all I crave
But there I go again
Livin' in the past
I make my own mistakes and let their's pass
[Chorus]
Well I know there's some things they won't understand
But I've only been given one good chance
I'm proud of my name and where I'm from
I'd rather build my home then be made by one

[Breakdown]

[Verse 3]
Got a place to live
The city took me in
With the hippies and the liberal politicians
But somewhere in that crowd
Like a familiar friend
I don't feel it will call my name again

[Chorus]
And I gotta get out while I still can
Try to figure out who the hell I am
I'm proud of my name and where I'm from
I'd rather build my home then be made by one

[Outro]
I'd rather build my home then be made by one
I'd rather build my home then be made by one
