I remember the sun setting on the road
Momma calling from the porch to come on inside
I could smell the food that my dad making and my grandpa saying we gonna be alright
Sitting down in his chair I could smell the smoke in the air
Fire burning tires turning down the street I thought it was all so perfect
Till I grew a little bit older
Got a little taller house turned a little bit colder
Really I just need a shoulder to cry on but I couldn't find one to bolster
All of the pain and the shame that came with the fact I couldn't tame my emotions
Maybe cuz all of the females that were in my life were just going through the motions
Never had a real one to trust
I was just filled by the lust
And it hurt cuz I couldn't tell you how I feel
And mom was the only one I had to look to
And she was broken had no example
And I followed my soul in shambles
I was lost searched for words of wisdom
Felt cursed cuz my walls reflected prison
And I know

I was far away from home
I was distant you brought me close
You eased my mind and helped me find the signs
To guide my way back home
And I've been on this road
I followed your steps and it brought me close
All this time I thought I was lost
You opened my eyes
I was already home

Staring in through the temper
Passenger but a member
Seeing it all through the glass better understanding what's in the past
Investing in grass mowing the lawn
Sit on the porch dusk until dawn
Watch it play as I'm making the songs
Fueled my helplessness all of it gone
So I got a choice to make not really
Moving for century reaching the city
Grass is so green flowers are pretty
Roses had bloomed character witty
The people are with me so I found a home
Quite a far away family flown
Family grown we all ready now
New life ahead in the land that we found
And we finally looking to settle
My dreams full of the metal
Chasing the gold and chasing the plaques
For recognition or the stacks
I'm hooking the tracks and making it real
Until you see it's all for the appeal
Finding the skill talent will seal
People and love that I'm willing to feel
I got new wheels new clothes to buy
You see what's on my mind
You see what's on my eyes
Truth sees through all the lies
Material things don't finalize my inner peace
This is sweet
Looking at lessons and blessings and everything given to me

I was far away from home
I was distant you brought me close
You eased my mind and helped me find the signs
To guide my way back home
And I've been on this road
I followed your steps and it brought me close
All this time I thought I was lost
You opened my eyes
I was already home

I remember this a long time ago
I was sitting with you at the kitchen table
And we were talking about
How I got mad about people
Saying something about you know
Something about wealth or whatever
Because out you and mom and how
Assuming that you were privileged
Just because I was a doctor
Yeah
And I said I don't know if you remember what I said
But I said yeah look at the house
But really look on the inside
That's where you'll find the real side of us

And I've heard home is where the heart it
I don't know if I agree I left home and felt the farthest
Away from any love or trust I know it's love or lust
I say home is the four walls where you growing up
Foundation was solid but you could look in the window and a see the rest of it falling
Balling our fist at every turn of a corner
What the point of living if you just can't love one another
Another problem another broken promise
Another check
Another purchase another mouth to feed another stress
Took me a long time to realize all the time that you were gone
You was working for our future benefit
So we could go off to college and make a bag off our knowledge
So we could chill with our family when we get a little bit older
So I guess that justifies all the times you were gone
And I've come to realize that love is more than a home
What is Love?

Is it gospel sounds is it hugs
Is it false acclamation when you high off the drugs
Is it lying to someone's face Because you can't bare to replace
Another fake love because then You would be forced to show your hate for that person
Or is it being honest about your problems
What is love
Is it giving cash when you ain't got the commerce
What is love
Is it saying I love you when I don't
Or when I don't telling you that I don't
What is love
Is it being willing to break the cycle
Or running in place because past generations are spiteful
What is love
Is it being willing to take the blame
When it wasn't your fault but you got out last name
What is love
What is love
What is love
Because I've experienced it all and it's all of the above
What is love
