Back down memory lane
I began as my mother's bright idea
A short time later
They all watched in awe
and all of a sudden I'm here.
She was also my father so I hardly got to see her
I was afraid of the dark
but it was only because I was a believer.
I was told when I was two years old
She swore that I would be special
I took a good look around
and thought don't worry mama the city's gonna help you.
Georgia, you'll always be home to me
Georgia, I belong to you
and yes you belong to me.
When they ask me where I'm from
I'm proud to say that I'm your son
I'm movin' on
Using mostly dirt roads
Until I find my way
Campbellton Road
Can't forget Cascade or the memorable MLK
There's somethin' about Atlanta that doesn't cease to amaze me.
Oh, after all it even raised the people that raised me.
And my old man is buried there, can't be mad now why bother?
You have been my mother nature also my godfather.
Georgia, you'll always be home to me
Georgia, I belong to you
and yes you belong to me
When they ask me where I'm from
I'm proud to say that I'm your son.
Georgia, you'll always be home to me
Georgia, I belong to you
and yes you belong to me
When they ask me where I'm from
I'm proud to say that I'm your son.
