[English]

I left my mother feeling sick in her bedroom

My daddy told me "son you best grow up"

I told my friends they can find me on the internet

'Cause somehow this place just ain't enough

A collect call from my brother in the lockup

He said he paid his dues, but could I pay 'em too?

My best friend's stealing 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 headed for

I said "oh no, oh no, 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 in my bags in the backseat

Pulled up the drive for one last look

She was standing in the doorway all lonely

Had to lean in close when 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

Oh no, oh no, 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

To my neighborhood

Came back last night just to see you

It's been too long but nothing's changed

I'm trying to be the one that you can't be

Maybe these dreams they are 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

Oh no, oh no, 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, to my neighborhood

To my neighborhood

My neighborhood

My neighborhood
