Homesick

I was stuttered on the side of a broken bone
Tryna find my way back, 'cause I just want to get back home
I guess I'm feeling homesick this time
Took the wrong turn, but for the last time

Growing up, love was only on a TV screen
The voice was a movie scene, we already seen
Whole family, been dancing with addiction flame
Cycle of pain never change, they all stay the same
Treating hearts left with scars, I'll always feel

Generational trauma, something I'm tryna heal
I broke free like a bird flying out the cage
Started praying turn the page, when I turn to faith
Now I'm married with a kid, got a life so bright
Gave my life over to God, when I saw his light

The cycle broken, the past is just a story
Now I'm the author, I'm so grateful for his glory

Struggle made me stronger, I'm so grateful for that
Y'all believed in me, I'll make sure that I'm paying you back
Started saying what, so why my people hate me for that
Wasn't in control, my life, I'm finally taking it back

I was stuttered on the side of a broken bone
Tryna find my way back 'cause I just want to get back home
I guess I'm feeling homesick this time
Took the wrong turn but for the last time

Growing up as a kid, that was just a lie
All I saw was addiction, what's the point of trying
Almost took my life, chasing after all the fame
Couldn't look into the mirror, am I self the same?
I made mistakes, I knew I had to make it right
Every single thing I share, was my guide and light
I'm finally home, finally not alone
Now our kids could grow up, with the love we didn't know

Now I stand tall, I'm so proud of the pain
I build my life up from the mud, so it wasn't in vain
Finally free from your control, and I've learnt to forgive
I'm not your puppet anymore, I'm finally learning to live

Struggle made me stronger, I'm so grateful for that
Y'all believed in me, I'll make sure that I'm paying you back
Started saying what, so why my people hate me for that?
Wasn't in control, my life, I'm finally taking it back

I was stuttered on the side of a broken bone
Tryna find my way back, 'cause I just want to get back home
I guess I'm feeling homesick this time
Took the wrong turn, but for the last time
