"hometown" lyrics

Said wherever I go, I'll be missing my hometown
Yeah, I know that I'm grown, but I wanna go home now
And, yes, I like adventure, I like doing what I please
But nothing can compare to being back in my routine

Mama, could you pick me up? (Hey, mom?)
All of these kids doing drugs in the club
'Cause they feel like they never enough (Woah)
But who's gonna tell them that's not gonna help 'em?
And maybe they didn't get love
When they were younger, they didn't get hugs
I'm not the one to critique or to judge
But man, it seems like they doing too much

Yeah, the grass looked green from way back there
But now it seems the same
And I was glad to leave, but now I'm here
Take me back to where I came

'Cause wherever I go, I'll be missing my hometown
Yeah, I know that I'm grown, but I wanna go home now
And, yes, I like adventure, I like doing what I please
But nothing can compare to being back in my routine

I miss my bed, I miss my parents
I miss the clothes I was tired of wearing
I miss the homies and stories we sharing
I miss the yells from the neighborhood Karen
Like, "Would you get off my lawn?"
And I left, I was gone
Now I'm stranded in some other yard
I would run till my legs hurt
But maybe the treasure was waiting right back at the start

'Cause, yeah, the grass looked green from way back there
But now it seems the same
And I was glad to leave, but now I'm here
Take me back to where I came

'Cause wherever I go, I'll be missing my hometown
Yeah, I know that I'm grown, but I wanna go home now
And, yes, I like adventure, I like doing what I please
But nothing can compare to being back in my routine
