j-r3mi - home lyrics

[intro: half note]
(cbj on the beat)

[verse 1: j+r3mi]
the hardest part ’bout leavin’ home is leavin’ home
which constitutes my mother and my sisters
even mister jameson and his kids and my cats
my little cousins growin’ up so fast
life flashes before my eyes
i’m like, “why is this there? what is that?”
so much is different when i get back
to my crib, but the one thing that is constant
is marilyn, mellanie, yolanda marie, and leti
lalo, mikey, and jaime, my family
that is home, and it’s so tough
to leave them for three whole months
at a time, but meanwhile, i’ll spit a rhyme
to hold me over ’til i return to my

[chorus: j+r3mi]
home is where i want to be
but family is it, and we’re split
one+hundred ninety+three miles apart
and it’s so hard to do
every time i have to go to school
but it, it must be done, so
home is where i want to be
but family is it, and we’re split
one+hundred ninety+three miles apart
and it’s so hard to do
[verse 2: j+r3mi]
i only talk to my mother twice
in a two+weeks’ span of time
’cause it hurts me
every line that i say only reminds
me of where i’m not, who not with
and i visit less
i get depressed when i leave home after winter break
i’m filled with pain: homesickness
that’s why i stay on campus all through the term
benefits me to unlearn
what i left
it cools the burn
to not think of my family when we’re separate
it sucks when i go to chicago, but not home
’cause it floods the gates of my memory
and it taints it
jeremy

[bridge: j+r3mi]
(is) oh so close but, oh so far
i don’t know why i don’t own a car
it would make it so much easier
to get from here, there, anywhere when i yearn

[chorus: j+r3mi]
home is where i want to be
but family is it, and we’re split
one+hundred ninety+three miles apart
and it’s so hard to do
[verse 3: j+r3mi]
when i’m not at home, i’m blinded
to all these problems, these issues
that my cousins are going through
when they misuse all types of drugs
little junior’s getting faded
there’s hate in his soul
he’s been suffering so long
he prolongs his smoke
i just woke up
don’t know what’s goin’ on at home
and my older one’s an addict now
takin’ this and that and wonderin’ how
far she can go to expand her mind
experimental or mentally broke?
either way, messin’ wit’ drugs ain’t a joke
i just hope you are both safe
it’s okay to seek help
if you need to, then tell
somebody what you’re goin’ through, and h+ll
just know that i love you both, wish you well
i just wish i can be there, truly knew what you felt

[chorus: j+r3mi]
home is where i want to be
but family is it, and we’re split
one+hundred ninety+three miles apart
and it’s so hard to do
[verse 4: j+r3mi]
being at knox keeps me up
thinking about the time i lost with my family
priscilla’s daughter doesn’t even know her uncle jeremy
“where’s he been all this time?”
getting my upper education
i’m ashamed when these questions asked
it’s my task that she learns exactly who i am
when i return to my fam
in my hands, i will grasp baby elva
forever shelter all of my family under this roof
this the proof that i give to you
