Where It Comes From (feat. Jordan Phillips) Lyrics


Seth Alley Where It Comes From (feat. Jordan Phillips)

I rocked a bowl cut back in '93
If I was 'Saved by the Bell,' well you would call me Screech
I had a Jansport backpack. Always got laughed at
But that didn't bother me. I was first on the scene with them JNCO jeans
Like Jonathan Taylor Thomas, I was every girl's dream
Okay that last part isn't true, but that's how it seemed in my head
I was ballin' like the 90's James Dean
Went straight from the walkman to the discman
I remember the days jammin' late, jumpin' on the trampoline
I was into everything from Garth Brooks to Jay-Z
I knew that one day that would be me

Teacher's told my mom that I had ADD, dad like to blame it on MTV
Said I wasn't fit for society, but that's because he never really understood me
Springsteen taught me how to talk about my life, Slim Shady LP dropped in 1999
Like "Strawberry Wine," I was drunk on rhymes and melodies like "Closing Time"

So if you ever wonder where I get my inspirations, that's where it comes from
If you wanna know the truth, I liked who I was
'Cause that's where I come from

If you're concerned that I'm too pop for country, too hip hop for pop and you don't know where i belong but you love this song
Throw your hands up, cause that's where it comes from

Take me back to the golden days, when I had all the time in the world to waste
Bein' myself was enough, It's where it all comes from
It all comes from

Fast forward a few years, Tears for Fears, The Eagles, Buddy Guy, John Denver, I grew up on The Beatles
Got my start playin' late nights in cover bands
Man, it felt good to make my dad proud at 14
I was making fans in a bar, 2 AM, a small town star, real talk
Boy, I could make the crowd rock
Teachers let me sleep in class, cause every Monday night
I was singin' for their drunk ass
Never had plans after graduation, while everyone else was out celebratin'
I started paintin', I worked a few jobs with my grandpa
Till my next girlfriend signed up for college, no knowledge
Worst mistake I ever made was walkin' turned my back on my dreams
So I dropped out, didn't get a degree
Next thing you know, I'm on TV
Moved to the scene, but didn't make the cut
So I moved to Nashville and got a record deal, yeah that's what's up!
It was great till they told me who I was
Before they even picked me up, my ass got dropped
Now I'm stuck waiting on a single to pop
They can hold me back but I'll never stop
They'll probably take the credit when I make it on top

So if you ever wonder where I get my inspirations, that's where it comes from
If you wanna know the truth I like who I was
'Cause that's where I come from
If you're concerned that I'm too pop for country, too hip hop for pop
And you don't where I belong but you love this song
Throw your hands up, 'cause that's where it comes from

Take me back to the golden days, when I had all the time in the world to waste
Bein' myself was enough, it's where it all comes from
It all comes from

So fi you ever wonder where I get my inspirations, that's where it comes from
If you wanna know the truth, I liked who I was
'Cause thats where I come from
If you're concerned that I'm too pop for country, too hip hop for pop
And you don't know where I belong but you love this song
Throw your hands up, 'cause that's where it comes from
