Atmosphere Always Coming Back Home To You Lyrics

Always Coming Back Home To You Lyrics

To all my killers and my hundred dollar billers
To emo kids that got too many
feelings

He held the register open while he counted her change
I was
next in line which meant I was invisible
From where I stood I could see that
the till was full
He didn't look the type to play superhero
So I stepped
forth and paid for my cigarettes
Crept out the stores front door to chase a
little breath
Fangles in my head, shake the song off
Another manic Monday
night, its gonna be a long walk

A car pulled up, a fixed up cutlass
A
woman and a child climbed out and left it running
They went inside of the
deli, placed an order
With the extra dollar fifty bottled water cuz the
daughters picky
When they came out mommy gave me a glance
That said man
can love an angel but he's got to take the chance
Already knew the deal, I
lit one up and walk
So they got back in the oldsmobile, belted up, and took
off

Thug love on the corner by the walgreens
Lookin at me like I'm
just another square saltine
As I get closer I notice that they showin each
other sketches
Out of their notebooks, reminded me of my old roots

I
walk pass with a nod and a reminisce
Swear to god hip hop and comic books
was my genesis
Respect the life and the fashions of the children
It's the
only culture I've got, exactly what we've been buildin

All of a sudden
I'm in front of some man
No he's a youngin but he's got a gun in his
hand
He looks fifteen, he looks frantic, no he looks afraid
Immediately
apprehensive til I heard him say
“Do you want this It's not mine I
promise
I found it on my block in between a couple garages
Didn't wanna
leave it for a child to stumble over
I don't even know how to hold
it.”

It was a thirty eight, the poor mans machete
Held it in my
hand, thinking damn man it's heavier then expected,
wedged it behind my belt
buckle
knowin that its evil, even thought that I could smell trouble
the
extra strength felt weak,
but over there on the corner saw what I needed and
proceeded to cross the
street
put the heat in the mail box to loose
it
figured that the post office knows whats best to do with it

Mosey
down the road thinkin' bout the old
I use to roam this zone with two feet of
snow
Right here, this use to be a record shop
I've gotten love, I've
gotten drunk, I've gotten beat up in that parking lot
I've had my lake
street pride for three decades
These alleyways, and these streetlights have
seen my best days
Before I was a germ learnin how to misbehave,
All the
way to the grave, south side is my resting place

Took a right on Lindale
I'm getting near
But then the road became empty and the people
disappear'd
The clowds ran away, opened up the sky
And one by one I
watched every constellation die
And there I was frozen, standin in my
backyard
Face to face, eye to eye, starin at the last star
I should've
known, walked all the way home
To find that she wasn't here, I'm still all
alone

No matter where I am, no matter what I do
I'm always coming
back home to you
They can leave me for dead they can take away my
true
I'm always coming back home to you
Through the lies and the sins
that ride the wind that blew
I'm always coming back home to you
As sure
as the life in the garden that you grew
I'm always coming back home to
you
No matter where I am, no matter what I do
I'm always coming back home
to you
If only I had known what you already knew
I'm always coming back
home to you
From the heaven I've had to the hell I been through
I'm
always coming back home to you
I'm always coming back home to you
