"Cross Country" lyrics

"Cross Country"

Jersey made
I was born and raised in the Garden State and my Mama prayed
I would trust in God, growing up is hard, so I made mistakes
In the DMV, getting my degree, it was fun and games
Before the drinking age (Oh-oh)

I tried to fit in but didn't, I'm different, yeah I know (Know)
The houses I stayed in were great but they never felt like home (So)

I'm going
Cross country, I won't stop running till I find where I belong
I'm going
Cross country, know they might judge me, I ain't gotta prove 'em wrong

'Cause I know it's okay
To be in my own lane
When I'm doing what they said can't be done
I'm going
Cross country, I won't stop running till I find where I belong
(Where I belong)

Went to ATL
Where the nights are long, with a thousand songs that would never sell
Till I dropped the bomb that would put me on, did it by myself
Uh, heard the living's good out in Hollywood, thought I might as well
Uh, and I signed a deal (Oh-oh)

I tried to fit in but didn't, I'm different, yeah I know (Know)
The houses I stayed in were great but they never felt like home (So)

I'm going
Cross country, I won't stop running till I find where I belong
I'm going
Cross country, know they might judge me, I ain't gotta prove 'em wrong

'Cause I know it's okay
To be in my own lane
When I'm doing what they said can't be done
I'm going
Cross country, I won't stop running till I find where I belong
(Where I belong)

Cross country, I won't stop running till I find where I belong
I'm going
Cross country, know they might judge me
But I ain't gotta, I ain't gotta prove them wrong

Ow-ooh-ooh
Ow-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ow-ooh-ooh
Ow-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh
