Lyrics:
New Years at the Chanticleer and I just signed my record deal
Someoneās singing karaoke just a Townie playing make-believe
There you were, spinning āround in your cardboard crown
You said congrats you made it out
But
Donāt forget about your town
Donāt forget where you came from
Cuz first youāre up then youāre down
Come crashing back to earth and thereās
No one around
Donāt forget about the pain
Of being young and forgotten
And when youāre up on that stage
At the top of your game
Donāt forget who taught you to play
Donāt forget about me
I was just another shy kid on the playground till you came around
Had big ideas and bigger dreams that no one seemed to give a shit about
There you were, you said if youāve got a song well sing it loud
You told me someday Iād make it out
But
Donāt forget about your town
Donāt forget where you came from
Cuz first youāre up then youāre down
Come crashing back to earth and thereās
No one around
Donāt forget about the pain
Of being young and forgotten
And when youāre up on that stage
At the top of your game
Donāt forget who taught you to play
Donāt forget about me
Donāt forget about me
Found a voicemail that you left me back in 2017
You said āIām sorry you donāt call me more, I guess youāre just too busy for me
But they were playing your song at the CVS downtown
And I just called to say, Iām so proudā
And I wonāt forget about my town
I wonāt forget where I came from
Cuz Iāve been up Iāve been down
Came crashing back to earth
But youāre not around

Todd was my friend. He mentored my son. My heart is still broken from the loss. Thank you for this, Sam. And if he's out there, he heard it, and he's so very proud. He's so happy you didn't forget.

I am devastated. Todd was my principal at bell Sherman elementary and ran the camp at Stewart park I was so poor as a kid he paid for me to go to camp and helped me make friends. Todd and Sandra Washington showed me so much love when no one else would. I left ithaca years ago and just came across this. Iāve never been more homesick in my life

Todd used to read to my class and act out all the different characters. It was one of the things we looked forward to most every day. I know he affected so many people in the community. Thank you for giving him the tribute he absolutely deserves!

Thank you for making this about my great uncle. Itās been hard for me to deal with his death and Iāve been avoiding it and at one point I almost forgot what his voice sounded like, lt has been so hard to accept the fact that heās gone, especially since he was always around for the first 17 years of my life. Seeing so many of my family members in this video brings back a lot. Seeing my mom in this video (Jodie Washington), she passed away as well, means so much to me. I feel like Iām rambling and you guys probably wonāt see this but from the bottom of my heart thank you so much for making this I wish could give you all a hug he loved you so much. All he did was talk about how proud he was of you and how the X Ambassadors are his boys and how much he loves you. Thank you to all of the amazing people commenting. He was, and still is, so loved and cherished. I Love and miss you so much Uncle Toddy. Iām so sorry I didnāt get to say goodbye. I turned 20 today, I wish you were here to celebrate with me. Thank you for helping to raise me and my little sister and all of our cousins, and always teaching me new things and life lessons. I will never forget everything youāve taught me. You are the one of the main reasons why Iām able to be who I am today and one of the main reasons why Iāll make sure to make as big of an impact on this earth as you did. And do as much for others as you have. I hope the world is able to hear this song and people are able to see what everyone in Ithaca already knew, how much of an amazing person you were. All of the world will now know your name and love you as much as we doā¤ļø

The tears flowed when I saw Todd, he was the heart of Belle Sherman, when my 4 kids were there in between '82-'92. He mentored so many kids in Ithaca in so many ways shariing his talents and compassions. Beautiful song about a beautiful person. Thank you.

Todd was my motherās teacher and mines. He was the definition of generational curse breaker! His execution , poise and loving personality is something ill never be able to forget.

Thank you so much for giving Todd Peterson his flowers here. He was such an amazing member of the community and made a lasting impression on all of us.

I spent almost every summer as a kid with Todd at SPDC, along with having him in class everyday at Belle Sherman. He was such an indescribably amazing person. He would love this. I love this. Thank you š¤

Todd was Ithacaās mentor and he is missed so much. When I was new to Ithaca and struggling to find my space he made me the first girl to captain a kickball team at Belle Sherman and it made such a difference for me. Todd and I remained close and became friends as adults. We confided in each other. Our accomplishments and disappointments. His passing had a profound effect on me and clearly on you guys too. Thank you for this tribute song. It brought tears to my eyes to see and hear him during his best years. How nice to see Jodie and so many others we have lost. Thank you ā¤ļø

May the torch be passed on so the legend may rest

You touch people in ways you never even know. When my boys were 11 and 13 their dad was given a terminal cancer diagnosis. That summer they wanted to spend all the time they could with their dad, it was heartbreakingly beautiful, and we soaked up every minute. But their dad was sick, very sick and as summer drew to a close I just wanted them to have a week to be *boys*, to be kids again, I just wanted so much for them to have a break- and all of Ithaca told me to āgo see Toddā. Without even thinking about it for a single second- he said, āyou bring your boys here (SPDC) Monday morning- weāve got you, weāve got them.ā Todd didnāt care that camp was full, Todd graciously opened those arms of his wide, and brought our family right in and my boys got to be boys again for a wonderful two weeks. This mama will forever be so grateful and so touched. Thank you for a truly fitting tribute.
