"Welcome Home" lyrics
(I'll come back)
I'll come back to you
(I'll come back)
I'll come back to you
If you need me, call me
And I'll come back to you (I'll come back)
I'll come back to you (I'll come back)
They say life is understood looking backwards but it's lived forward first
Sometimes I wish that line could be reversed
My quick decisions, well emotional, that never got rehearsed
Causing pain as a young man, too much pride to be heard
See, I'm a stubborn learner
I'm just like my father
When in constant motion, I feel like I'm working harder
So I built up all this armor, but
Everything I want is on the other side of fear
So I've been tryna make a choice to be at peace
And live more like my niece
So much beauty in that child, remember when that was me
Cold world, cold world, try picking at every piece
To steal your confidence and turn them into insecurity
But don't you let them win, don't be afraid to shine
Your heart too full to only be half of what God designed
Those words I hope you keep in mind 'cause
Believing that gets harder the older that you gon' get
I healed when I spent more time reflecting instead of tryna run
Used to cut my flowers just to prove my garden getting sun
They wonder why nothing's blooming, we're scared of being human
We'll pretend to know it all so they ain't see me as a student
So desperate to be loved, lost tears, sweat and blood
Felt a weight of shame, now I no longer care if I'm judged
I'm coming home, the journey been remaining who I was
Lost my patience, but I'm thankful that I never lost my trust
(I'll come back)
I hope you know that true, grey skies been turning blue
If God's got my back, there's not a way I lose
It's all perspective, you can choose what lens you're seeing through
And I see treasure I left behind at the start
Wasn't grown enough to listen and made the choice to depart
I felt every scar, but it traced a map to my heart
And that's what led me back eventually to you, so now I'm singing
(I'll come back)
I'll come back to you
(I'll come back)
I'll come back to you
If you need me, call me
And I'll come back to you (I'll come back)
I'll come back to you (I'll come back)
I'll come back to you
(I'll come back)
I'll come back to you
If you need me, call me
And I'll come back to you (I'll come back)
I'll come back to you (I'll come back)
They say life is understood looking backwards but it's lived forward first
Sometimes I wish that line could be reversed
My quick decisions, well emotional, that never got rehearsed
Causing pain as a young man, too much pride to be heard
See, I'm a stubborn learner
