Homecoming

I always said I’d never go home

Once I got out, I’d continue to roam

Wander everywhere, I didn’t care

Not a penny to my name, pockets bare

All that mattered was I wasn’t there

Everything else was laissez-faire

But the return home was inevitable

This son’s set to be prodigal

With misery in my heart, the past on my mind

I board the train home, made it just in time

Though these tracks don’t have beats inside

I ride to the rhythm of what I left behind
