Homecoming

I was born right by the mountain
From a place where eagles would sore
Now I'm saying goodbye to my hometown
I'm going where I never been before
See my daddy was a farmer and mama see was a nurse
Told me stories about the world, I'm about to find what it's worth
Mama don't you cry, daddy please just say goodbye
Cause, I've gotta live before I die, but I'll be coming back home soon
(But I'll be coming back home soon)

Now I'm standing by the streetlights, not sure if I really belong
Though my trouble days may come, I know I gotta go on
I've gotta live my life in colors, no more living in black and white
I've gotta learn to live my life, I've gotta learn to stand and fight
Sister don't you cry, brother I will be alright
Cause I've gotta live before I die, but I'll be coming back home soon
(But I'll be coming back home soon)

So many years past and I've been waiting for so long to see my papa
I can't wait to see his eyes
So many years past and I've been dreaming for so long to see my mama
I can't wait to see her smile
Because I've lived before I die and I come back home to you
