Home is Where the HeArt Is.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Like many kids, I'm tryna see the world
Experience different girls, see my future unfurl
I feel like that one kid who's in Home Alone
Except I'm the one gone, and trapped is my soul
Old man, young body, tryna be a somebody
Rekindle flame of feelings with home, my shawty
I can't abandon this state, too much love for Cali
Switch to Engrish, it's the state I carry
My city needs me, and she's always waiting
One of the best in this world, don't bother debating
If life is a beach, I'm viewing the horizon
Tryna listen to her vocal waves colliding
Hate leaving home to where Life takes me
I know she'll be ok cause my family will stay
Familiarity and security don't help me grow
So I must go but
I have to say that...

[Chorus]
There's no other place like home
There's no other place I put on
There's no place that I hold in my heart
You're always with me when I'm gone
I only wanna go home (4x)

[Verse 2]
War of Life, Love's Battlefield, I'm a mercenary
Hope I'm home alive in that Murcielago
I'm on a trip where I make money off raps
Flow is boomerang clips, cause bullets don't come back
I barely know my city, I take her with me
Do feelings and thoughts count? The only thing in me
I was tired of my house when I got grown
Even though I get old, Imma always rep home
But what is home? A house or a pad?
Or the feeling of family and friends you always have?
Only when something ain't there is when you see it
The second I stare, I start to believe it
Your boy is still fly, I left my bird nest
Gotta break it to you, I know it hurts your chest
I can only do me, I tell you it's for the best
I'm always ok, so I can always say that

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
So where, oh where, are we now?
Shouts to God asking why and how

Home's no house with walls and ceilings
It's your loved ones and all the feelings (2x)
Loved ones, and feelings (2x)


[Verse 3]
I know why I loved those Nintendo games
You had to play if you wanted the end to change
Always hard to see but I got a clear vision
I'm asking for your help: trust my decision
Don't worry, I'm on that college degree
I got control of my life, one day you'll agree
No question of will, but when I will make it
Home is always with me, wherever I take it

[Chorus]
