GISDBASE is set from a value saved in .grassrc5

You can do either of the following:
1. edit .grassrc5 and add a line such as:
     GISDBASE: /path/to/your/data
2. hide  .grassrc5 by renaming or moving it. This will cause GRASS to 
prompt you for Location, Mapset, and Gisdbase the next time you start GRASS.
