​[Intro] Yo, check the coordinates. Heart's compass always points North. But the wheels keep spinning East. Gotta find that new magnetic force. This one’s for the memory lane hustlers. ​[Verse 1] Staring out the window at a city I don't know, The lights are flashing different, the pace is moving slow To a soul that was raised on concrete cracks and hand-me-downs, Where the sweetest sound was quiet when the sun went down. I miss the smell of rain hitting that old cracked driveway, The taste of victory on the court every Friday. Remember Mom's kitchen, that simple, clean air? Now my reality is stale coffee and a silent stare At an itinerary, a blueprint, a master plan. I left to be the hero, but I miss being just the man Who had nothing to prove, just time to waste and dreams to plant. That old foundation gave me roots, now my ambition's rampant. The heart feels heavy 'cause the ghost of yesterday is near, Whispering comforts that I know I shouldn't hear. ​[Hook] 'Cause I wanna go home, yeah, the longing is deep, Back to the promises that memory will keep. But the map in my hand shows a peak I gotta climb, Can't turn back now, gotta invest this time. I'm stuck between the memory and the milestone, Missing what was, but I gotta walk this road alone. Yeah, I wanna go home, but the future calls my name, I’ll find my way back, when I win this game. ​[Verse 2] This new horizon is blinding, a canvas painted gold, It’s the story I was promised when I broke the family mold. These are the trenches, the necessary rough grind, The education in hustle, leaving comfort behind. I traded the familiar faces for lessons in silence, Learning the language of success, fighting internal violence. 'Cause every setback here just sharpens the design, The man I’m building now? He's definitely divine. I can almost feel the texture of that new address, The weight of the keys, the tangible success. Yes! I see the finished product, the grand reunion scene, Walking back in that door, not broke, but a machine Forged in fire, every promise I made is paid, Looking back at the path I conquered, unafraid. The sacrifice is heavy, but the return is heavier. Can't wait for that day, when I'm finally delivering. ​[Hook] [Synth melody becomes prominent, kick drum hits hard] 'Cause I wanna go home, yeah, the longing is deep, Back to the promises that memory will keep. But the map in my hand shows a peak I gotta climb, Can't turn back now, gotta invest this time. I'm stuck between the memory and the milestone, Missing what was, but I gotta walk this road alone. Yeah, I wanna go home, but the future calls my name, I’ll find my way back, when I win this game. ​[Bridge - Contemplation, Linking Past and Future] The nostalgia hits me hard, like a wave from the shore, But that simple life I left gave me the strength to endure. I carry that quiet confidence in every deal I make, The spirit of that small town for my legacy’s sake. The future is wide open, the history is closed, And to get what I deserve, I've gotta wear these new clothes. Gotta see the next chapter, gotta turn the next page, Yeah, the heart is home, but the body’s on the stage. ​[Hook] [Energy builds up, slightly ad-libbed] 'Cause I wanna go home, yeah, the longing is deep, Back to the promises that memory will keep. But the map in my hand shows a peak I gotta climb, Can't turn back now, gotta invest this time. I'm stuck between the memory and the milestone, Missing what was, but I gotta walk this road alone. Yeah, I wanna go home, but the future calls my name, I’ll find my way back, when I win this game. ​[Outro] I’ll find my way back... when I win this game. Keep the engine running... [Echoed whisper] Go home... touch the sky...
