Home Sick Lyrics

The closest we come to divinity

Your hand in mine

My mind a blank slate

Stuck in that state

Before I knew the world that I know

Back when things were new, simple and sweet

Something is wrong here

I don't belong here

I just keep painting and writing my songs here

Maybe she'll reach out to me

When I'm gone

Down in the dirt and I'm done here

Cause I cannot live for the clout

Money and the fame

Don't take away shame

Don't take away doubt

There's too much corruption

And I cannot function

I call my girl to tell her I love her

I'm leaving tonight

I'm in search of another

Beloved

Why's it so hard to treat people with dignity

I wanna leave and just live in infinity

I need a world that can match my serenity

Lawd

I know I'm not the only one

Who feels something is wrong

No, I'm not the only one

Who feels so far from home

One day they'll look back at my poetry

And finally know me

One day they'll look back at my letters

And finally see

One day they'll look back at my poetry

And finally know me

One day she'll look back at my letters

And finally see

Something ain't right

Why are they constantly dimmin my light

Put me in boxes

And label my life

She gay or she straight?

She black or she white?

But I'm made from the stars

A human the angels have carved into flaws

Born in December

I'll die for the cause

Throw me on stages with rounds of applause

Lawd

Death and destruction

Fighting and bickering

Everyone yellin'

Ain't nobody listenin'

There's no regard for the human condition

Our leaders betray us

Get paid in commission

Listen

Why's it so hard to treat people with dignity

I wanna leave and just live in infinity

I need a world that can match my serenity

Lawd

I know I'm not the only one

Who feels something is wrong

No, I'm not the only one

Who feels so far from home

One day they'll look back at my poetry

And finally know me

One day they'll look back at my letters

And finally see

One day they'll look back at my poetry

And finally know me

One day she'll look back at my letters

And finally see
