Mic Brim - Finally Home

So much time searching
So much time alone
Exploring the unknown
I'm glad that it's over
Yo I finally made it home
Yeah I finally made it home
Pops was outta there early
Cheated and got caught
Momma wasn't having it
She had to kick
Him out and I be
Imagining
How it would've molded me if
You know he hadn't been
Battling
Temptation and losing
Or even at the very least practicing
Safe sex
I'm looking in his casket and
I'm asking him
Why he couldn't come back again
And I ain't learn the truth til I was 30
At that point
It didn't even hurt me
But I had spent so many years doing women dirty
Comfortably
Guess the apple ain't fall far from the tree
I ain't deserve to be loved
But I ain't want to be
The person I was
Lucky for me
Someone could see
She gave me grace
Told her my history
And she told me my honesty paved the way
I let my gratitude steer me away from making the same mistakes
And now I'm finally home
So much time searching
So much time alone
Exploring the unknown
I'm glad that it's over
Yo I finally made it home
I finally made it home
Made a habit of adopting
Father figures
Any and every man was an option
My uncle would stop in
Take me for a few hours
Bring me back with a fresh haircut
That's a lot when
Nobody else is there and he knew it
But he was not him
Life was hard and all he was able to temporarily do was carry me through it
When I got in
Trouble he saved the day
But what I really needed was an example
A little guidance
On how to be self-reliant
From a man
Never met no one as close
Still
Anytime anybody's wings would spread I'd be under both
So many gems collected
I ain't know who I was
But I knew who I respected
I knew who I followed was reflective of the direction I was headed in
And eventually it would settle in
And now it's evident
That I'm finally home
So much time searching
So much time alone
Exploring the unknown
I'm glad that it's over
Yo I finally made it home
I finally made it home
