Verse 1:
They say "home is where the heart is"
But these hardships only brought me heartaches
The hardest part is to bounce back from hard hits
It's like I bungee'd off a cliff without a harness
We're apart, it's crazy and I tend to doubt
Somebody please just tell me how I'd live inside this empty house?
And my memory's out of a happy childhood
Now my heart's burnt out like a stack of firewood
Wish that I could crawl out of this tragedy
But everybody's mad at me, it drives me to insanity
I tried to singlehandedly raise my little family
So I rap like I'm the shit, but I'm really not a fan of me
So got profanity and sadness in my speech
I couldn't practice what I preach
Like a leech in my heart, now my love and life are sucked out
I wanna run home but I struck out
I guess I'm....
Chorus:
On my own
It's hard when everybody's gone
The pain is just too strong
I wish I had a heart of stone
I wanna run away
But I will wait for a better day
I guess it's safe to say there's no place like home
Verse 2:
Damn I really miss my home
As I'm gettin' grown I'm feelin' more alone
We used to be happy, all together on em Sundays
Now? My family's relationship had turned into a love-hate
First, my brother went away coz he had big plans
But ever since then? We ain't been friends
When will this shit end? I try to keep my hopes up
But it got worse when my mom and pops broke up
The scar is too deep, tears fall when I sleep
I guess the fruit didn't fall far from the tree
I swore to my mother I would never take his character
I really hated father but I still became his replica
I messed up when my wife was in America
Broke a couple vows that I made the day I married her
Now I'm bearing the pain and I'm holding on
And I can't give my kids another broken home
Chorus:
On my own
It's hard when everybody's gone
The pain is just too strong
I wish I had a heart of stone
I wanna run away
But I will wait for a better day
I guess it's safe to say there's no place like...
Outro:
How can I live inside an empty house?
When nothing's left and all the love and life's run out
See everthing's not the same, it all changed
But the pain still remains
I will wait for how long it may take
For the day that I'll be okay in my own home
In my own home
In my own home
In my own home
