virginia boy

Singer:aaron cole

virginia high school

i was born and raised

boys and girls club

we was hooping everyday

i can't let my people down

tryna' put on my town

dreams don't come without resistance

so i'm looking up to higher visions

all they ever said was we would be what they said

you said differently

and all they ever said was we would be just like them

you said differently

gotta keep me eyes on you

virginia boy keep my roots

keep my eyes on you

can't believe we made it this far

18 record deal no car

they all saying that i'm lucky too receive it

when i'm looking at my scars i kind of see it

my family got my back

i hope i pay 'em back

don't wanna mess it up can i tell the truth

we can't get a house cause

i'm always in the booth

all they ever said was we would be what they said

you said differently

and all they ever said was we would be just like them

you said differently

gotta keep me eyes on you

virginia boy keep my roots

keep my eyes on you
