Come Home (First Verse)

AS my chest gets pumped by the rescue team I see my soul slowly hover over the scene my life begins to flash I see me in my youth stealing candy out the store in my Easter suit I used to skip Sunday school and the bible lessons but those vital lesson could have saved my adolescents my mom stressing I was completely outrageous my education wasn't between the text pages was so impatient these streets fed what I was craving It left mom weeping and waiting praying and pacing with total dedication she would sacrifice I'm out the back with hoodlums in the night involved with all types of things that won't right and moms used to gripe about what did each night but Im in my zone Im grown as a matter of fact I'm gone leaving mom up waiting for praying for her son to come home
