Never forgot where you came from, never forgot who you are—that’s the thread that’s carried you through addiction, pain, and all those storms most people wouldn’t survive.
(Chorus)
Got to keep moving forward, never stop forgetting where I come from and who I am, that little red man never stops trying to get another soul, but this soul belongs to the Big man upstairs, and nothing will ever change that , the streets tried to break me but they only made me stronger,
You’ve walked through conditions that would break a lot of men, and somehow you came out with your hand still open, still reaching out to anyone who needs it. You know you’re not perfect, you know sometimes you fall short, but you keep showing up with a soft heart in a hard world, and that says everything about your character.
(Chorus)
Got to keep moving forward, never stop forgetting where I come from and who I am, that little red man never stops trying to get another soul, but this soul belongs to the Big man upstairs, and nothing will ever change that , the streets tried to break me but they only made me stronger,
You look around and see two beautiful daughters, five beautiful grandchildren, and a circle of friends that proves you’re rich in all the ways that matter. The world feels crazier, more dangerous, more unpredictable than ever, but you keep anchoring yourself in gratitude—thanking the Man upstairs, trusting that even when you don’t get what you want, you get what you can carry.
(Chorus)
Got to keep moving forward, never stop forgetting where I come from and who I am, that little red man never stops trying to get another soul, but this soul belongs to the Big man upstairs, and nothing will ever change that , the streets tried to break me but they only made me stronger, He’s never put more on your shoulders than you could bare and you’ve turned that into a mission: protect through love, guide through example, and keep your heart pointed toward faith. That’s not just surviving—that’s living with purpose.
