Where I'm From
Where I come from, the 90 degree summers transform into icy winters.
And sun rays transform into bitter sub-zero temperatures of snow days.
Where I come from, one month it’s boats,
another month it’s snowmobiles.
One month it’s wakeboarding,
another month it’s ice fishing.
Where I come from, the change in seasons is important.
Where I come from, we have cornfields instead of city blocks.
Instead of skyscrapers and parking lots,
we have hills and lakes.
I come from the scenery of trees which paint the seasons,
and the colors go through a rainbow of change.
I come from where the sun glistens off the water.
Where I come from, nature is important.
Where I come from, we’re at lake during summertime,
and catching bass in the summer sun.
I come from the lake where I grew up spending my summers.
I come from tubing and wakeboarding,
swimming slowly and steady sailing,
and fishing.
Where I come from, the lake is important.
Where I come from, Packer games remain a Sunday tradition,
and no one is as revered as Aaron Rodgers.
I come from loyal Packer fans with Super Bowl memories.
I come from Brewers tailgates, and nightly Bucks games.
Where I come from, stars
like Yelich, Giannis, and Jordy helped me grow.
Where I come from, sports are important.
