[Hook x2:] Mama I'm coming home Same damn boy you've always known Right now I can't live forever Some things better on the other side
They say the grass is always greener and everything is cleaner I'm desperate for the fame and you can tell by my demeanor I want it bad, I need her, I'm thinking I'm in love Yo if fame was a drug I would die if I leave her I'm feeling all depressed yo I hate this trouble And no words could accurately paint this struggle To heal these wounds they ain't made the ointment yet It's tough to get by on that unemployment check But Mom I know you do it I'm proud of you for that I wish that I could prove whoever doubted you was whack It's fact I always promised you that I'd never be far But instead I'm going Hollywood trying to be a star But see I've got dreams that I'm desperate to accomplish But trying to find the time, bout to do it to be honest [?] I'm trying my way up to the top and that's my promise I know that there's a deeper meaner here but let's be honest For now, I'm trying to come up and do my thing And show the world you raised nothing but a young king So for now, I'm gone, send word to my Mom And tell her that I'm sorry for the pain that I have caused
[Hook]
[Bryce Vine:] Man it's funny how your life change and the time flies I can't erase that scar on my left eye I work hard just to make it all worth it Give a purpose to the words I throw on paper, you deserve it Mama everything I do, I do for you And every battle scar I have, if nothing else, it's proof That I fucked up more times than I should've More times than I would've liked, if I could take it back I still wouldn't Cause life is a roller coaster ride I make it if I try but I'm busying wasting time in the party scene With the girls and the booze I am lost and confused and I hazed that leaves me somewhat confused [?] But the music is bumping and the people want more They scream my name like they calling to the Lord So for now, I'm gone, send word to my Mom And tell her that I love her and I'm right where I belong
[Hook]
Okay, mama I'm sorry, but I just want to party They tell me I should study more and I reply hardly [?] Forget about school every time I swizz Marley Trying to find a balance but my lifestyle is gnarly And I'm continuously tardy to classes Cause late is the fashion it's a wonder how he passes Still in school, trying to reach a buzz I rock shows and kick in front of more people than my teacher does So tell me how I'm supposed to listen to a man on the stand who only makes 40 grand Try to educate me, let these fucking college loans rape me I'd rather chase my dream without a clue where it'd take me F following a system, I'm following my heart I'd rather make music than to wallow in the dark So for now, I'm gone, send word to my Mom I finally found what I'm supposed to do, it's in these songs
