When I grow up I just wanna be Homecoming King, Homecoming King I'm banking on this opportunity To finally find identity (Yeah) I was sad and depressed No happiness left I didn't have any rest The fashion I kept was masking my flesh Cuz I was naked and with these leaves I stayed hid Inside of me still the same kid Tryna cover shame with make shift figs Depression left me oppressed Obsessed with acceptance And doubted my purpose A skeptic guessin' expression And dressed to impress To reflect my earnest Desire for respect Cuz I'm tired and regret My entire collection of purchases Of treasures invested in hurts In conception and birth Suggestin' I'm worthless (ugh) Looking for significance In my mother's womb I was knitted in And all my intricacies are benefits That God spent time and intention in But I thought about dying cuz I ain't know was living is Go to college, get a job and the biggest crib Was the mission then but it didn't fit me When I grow up I just wanna be Homecoming King, Homecoming King I'm banking on this opportunity To finally find identity (yeah) King, King, King. Homecoming. King, King, King. Homecoming. I put my hope in what people thought of me So insecure their opinion bothered me An empty well leading straight to hell And wondered why my depression slaughtered me Lost all that I put my hope in Lost motivation and couldn't focus Praying hard hoping God would show up But stripped away what I used to cope with I was broken and sought completion In other things outside of Jesus But popularity couldn't fulfill me Then God showed me He was all I needed Used to think about ending my life But by God's grace I'm still breathing My way was wrong And His way was right And redeemed my life for His Holy kingdom I sought to be king but told me come home I was never fit to be on His throne Never felt loved and always alone Despite the many people I've always known (Yeah) And that was my life's dream To be liked and seen Won homecoming king But in two weeks would be a fluke to me Like a quick high that would soon leave When I grow up I just wanna be Homecoming King, Homecoming King I'm banking on this opportunity To finally find identity (Yeah) King, King, King. Homecoming King, King, King. Homecoming I believe in my vision I'm a king on a mission Used to seek for attention But now I see why I'm living I Wasn't told I was Knitted Ever Since the beginning But one day in my kitchen God showed me why I existed I believe in my vision I'm a king on a mission Used to seek for attention But now I see why I'm living I Wasn't told I was Knitted Ever Since the beginning But one day in my kitchen God showed me why I existed And I heard Him say Come home to me Come home to me Cuz where my Spirit is You will be free Come home to me Come home to me Lay your crown down You should just Come home Come home Come home Come home to me Come home Come home Come home Come home to me You have made us for yourself oh Lord And our hearts are restless Until they rest, in you
