Analysis of Remember where you come from



Remember where you come from

this is my advice.

make sure to listen carefully

I will not say it twice.

When you make it far

it can be difficult

to remember who you are.

Your family was always there

you had hair.

Always make the best of life

but just remember

you came from small beginnings

like your family members

so when you're out and about

just try not to succumb

to the evils in the world

remember where you're from
