N8le - Heart of It All Lyrics

There's a place where I come from everyone shows love

Steel mill era but the truth is clearer
Staring at the world through the rear view mirror
Foundation of America rust belt state
Dreams of better days on the blue collar wage
Manufacturing became center fold for trade
And even though we sank
Sometimes it helps to take
A look at how we came up
A look at what we made
So we can find a way
To move up in the ranks
Instead of drugs and gangs
Ruining the youth
We can give the kids a choice
We can build it from the truth
We can build a better dream if the dream is from you
And you can feel it on the inside like real dreamers do

Ohio raise up
It's time to dream big

I've got the weight
Of the world sitting on my shoulders
There's no way
You can hold me down
Baby, I just soldier on like
O-H-I-O, O-H-I-O
And we the heart of it all
Yeah, we the heart of it all

Yeah, we the buckeye state
Put ya hands up for the buckeye state
Birthplace of aviation, took that race
We put so many people into outer space
The presidential office never looked so great
Look how many people represent our state
Music compositions and award winning pictures
Poets and inventors and a whole lot of business
Ohio is the place that came up from depression
Our way is independent, our way is very set in
You think I'm just beginning but our way is never ending
Cause this way is our expression from the weight we steady flexing

Ohio up
One love
Yeah

I've got the weight
Of the world sitting on my shoulders
There's no way
You can hold me down
Baby, I just soldier on like
O-H-I-O, O-H-I-O
And we the heart of it all
Yeah, we the heart of it all

And yeah we got a lot of problems too
I lost a lot of good friends that addiction screwed
But I'm hoping that if I've showed you truth
You'll see that there's other options available to choose
I hope that if you suffer any kind of disease
You'll get the help you need and we can save you too

I've got the weight
Of the world sitting on my shoulders
There's no way
You can hold me down
Baby, I just soldier on like
O-H-I-O, O-H-I-O
And we the heart of it all
Yeah, we the heart of it all
I've got the weight
Of the world sitting on my shoulders
There's no way
You can hold me down
Baby, I just soldier on like
O-H-I-O, O-H-I-O
And we the heart of it all
Yeah, we the heart of it all
