Homecoming

[Intro: Tion Wayne & Choir]

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

Tch, tch

Yeah, yeah

Yeah

[Verse]

I remember like '03 when we couldn't sleep until the mouse was trapped

First time I saw Oz, it was so deep, I had to shout for that

From young, I had a known dream, to bring my whole team

Man, they can vouch for that

But now I paid off my mum's house and that

But we started in a council flat

I done a lot of fuckery, but trust me I'm a hundred, facts

I was on a jail phone, man, the first time I saw a hundred racks

It's crazy

Was young, I listened to bare JAY-Z

I was overwhelmed in my jail cell 'cause I couldn't believe that rap paid me

I wasn't gonna fix up, didn't see the picture

'Til I had a call with Tеrry

He said, "When you come homе, 'llow all the fuckery, bro, your life set already"

No composure, on road, had a Rover

My mistakes made me feel shitter

I thought it was over, I was all bitter but bro said, "They're chattin' on Twitter"

I said, "No way, bro", he said, "Yeah, bro"

"Will they wait, bro?" He said, "Yeah, though"

Don’t hate but I will never fear yo

More time, it goes in and out one earhole

Yeah, tryna get my life straight from a jail

Sometimes, I really ain't got space for a girl

Tryna have the same cake as Adele, yeah

Never came here to fail

Don't waste trill when you came off a L

And I ain't gon' stop 'till my real niggas home and everybody fake's in the jail

But let me take you back to the come-up

Mommy got ill, I was out here one-up

Daddy showed tough love, didn't know I'm on stuff, but I was just licking bare food undercover

Mummy got well, came back, but couldn't understand how I chose this life

Called me about her dreams in the midnight, then her son went in jail for a flick knife

'Cah I was smart, but I lost my mind

I think it's when she got cancer twice

I had to roll with my grams on bike

But I'm glad I had grandma's rice

You was wired to machine

She still phone me 'cause she had a dream

You heard what I done, how I take the scene

She still pray for me, always on my team

Then I try and live right, do it different

But it was too late, stuck up in the system

Me and Dyl' got grabbed, man snitchin'

By sixteen, had bare convictions

Couldn't get a job, but I couldn't stay down

Decide the roads was the only way out

Every day, had to roll with flicky, man, I plug man 'cause my beef was sticky

But I love music, but didn't choose it

I had a gift, so I might as well use it

But I had no Ps, so I had to do moves

I was intrudin', with the wap includin'

Now the villa's inclusive

I was tryna help my block, come straight off the roads

But a lotta man just try and hate on me though

I get it, you didn't see the vision

Now I'm up and little niggas wanna listen

Got stabbed at my own video shoot

It's in-house where the haters were local

I was broke, doin' shanks with my gold tooth

Nowadays, snub nose get vocal

Didn't rap cah caps, so they're rotten

So I stopped rap back when I got him

No I'm two-ways, Wizzy was workin' a line but a nigga was really just hurtin' inside

Judge steal me, we were just [?] with a [glide?]

That's when people only ever heard of the 9

Then I started makin' it, I got paid for it, then my life just really start to change and shit

Really on stage for it, is it love or are you fakin' it?

Say I don't know about relationships

But my beef, my team, man backin'

That's when I went in jail, all my dreams started crashin'

But if you know me, it's passion

Can't believe I came home in fashion

Now, I give you something to hate on

Do you know what the fuck that I came from?

Can't believe I got sold-out shows

God knows that I'm thankful

Went number one off my pencil

Baby, that's my car, not a rental

Man, I'm in the charts, man, I'm thankful

This whole summer on past, it was dreadful

Mm-mm

Man, I'm thankful

Number ones now, man, I'm thankful

Platinum tunes, now, I'm thankful

Got kicked out of school, now, I'm thankful

God knows that I'm thankful

My real one's know that I'm thankful

Yeah

Free my brothers in the system

You

[Outro: Tion Wayne's mother]

Good morning, Jesus

Good morning, Lord

I know you come from Heaven above

The Holy Spirit sits on the throne

Good morning, Jesus

Good morning, Lord

Thank you for your son, Ayodeji Deji [Oluwa Ogame?]

Thank you, Lord, for the journey so far

Thank you, Lord, for bringing all situations, all bad situations around

For turning it around

Thank you, Lord, for the action that you have given him to continue to function

Thank you, Lord, for open doors

Thank you, Lord

I pray that everyone around him will good, will lead a life of proper

That he will impact everyone around him to lead a life of focus

To fulfill a purposeful life

In the name of Jesus
