Like a
Old copy of my favorite movie
Like a mango put in any smoothie
Like my mama putting Vick's on my head to sooth me
Don't mean that I'm staying backwards
Don't mean I ain't moving forward
Temporarily hitting pause to press rewind
I'm checking up on my roots
I got time to feel so good
When I was young I never understood
Being told not to rush
Now I miss it all so much
But I'm blessed to know
That I'm coming home
I love it when life takes time to bring me home
On a simple day where I get to take it slow
When it all just gets way too much
When I need to bring it back to not lose touch
Of who I am then life brings me home brings me home
Playing GTA with my brother
Reminiscing on past endeavors
Smiling about shit that never came to be
Used to get so disappointed
When it didn't work the way I wanted
But whatever ain't here ain't meant for me
I'm checking up on day ones
Proud of how far they come
Looking forward to the next time
We'll run it, run it run it
Got em throwbacks on loop
With a bowl of fruity loops
We went through them hoops
But we made it, so replay it
I love it when life takes time to bring me home
On a simple day where I get to take it slow
When it all just gets way too much
When I need to bring it back to not lose touch
Of who I am then life brings me home brings me home
I love it when
I get to see my mama
Hide away from all this drama
She's the one to make me feel like a kid again
I love it when
I find something I thought I lost
Something old has a brand new purpose
And if you're there and you feel me
Like the real me
Say, aye
I love it when life takes time to bring me home
On a simple day where I get to take it slow
When it all just gets way too much
When I need to bring it back to not lose touch
Of who I am then life brings me home brings me home
