Backstory:

Guitar driven uptempo song. I wrote it based on the old saying "Don't get above your raising". It was written using shadows of my own memories, but I also know they could be anyone's memories.

Lyrics:

                                                  
Lightnin’ speed on spoke wheeled bikes 
Hide and seek hot summer nights 
Swimmin’ creeks when fish don’t bite
I can still recall

Growin’ up when times were lean
To have enough was all you need
Mama’s love fixed everything
And taught us all

 		From your knees count your blessings each day
 		For those more in need always pray
 		Don’t lose sight of where you’re from
 		Cause in time it will become
 		Treasured forever in your thoughts 
 		These days are too good to be forgot

Granddad used to make me laugh
Teased me to the day he passed
Enjoy your youth boy time goes fast
But I didn’t believe

Got a small tribe of my own
I can’t deny how fast they grow
From Heaven high “I told you so”
Gramps keeps telling me

		From your knees count your blessings each day
 		For those more in need always pray
 		Don’t lose sight of where you’re from
 		Cause in time it will become
 		Treasured forever in your thoughts 
 		These days are too good to be forgot

 		Don’t lose sight of where you’re from
 		Cause in time it will become
 		Treasured forever in your thoughts
 		These days are too good 
 		These days are too good 
 		These days are too good to be forgot
