Home To Me

What is Home, Home To Me 

Place of Comfort and Safety 

Bubble separate from time 

Where I used to, love to be 

Now I drift lost soul so lonely 

Though, I maybe accompanied 

Love for home was once inside of Me

Violence stripped away my sanity 

The question what's home to me 

A place I once felt safe to be 

One hot night changed my eternity 

Police Barrels, See Bullets aimed at me 

Hands in the Air, police no please 

Let me explain what yous fail to see 

I couldn't see a loved one bleed 

I stood up best I could be 

Big brother, protects sisters as they flee 

Big brother is me, police no please 

My situation, stood up for my mom see

Sister run in, guns pointed at me 

Cop drags her in living room she screams 

I think no withnesss, Police no Please 

That moment my soul dift with ease 

No anxiety as my souls projected outside of me 

How'd doing right cause almost end of me 

And in one swoop remove banish saniety 

Almost exhiled permanently from society 

Back with God or the place of Heat 

Once felt safe at home to me

Calm able to sleep in peace 

Fantasize on what was home to me 

At night connect universe my energy

The Question what is home to me 

Everyday, Fantasize on the place I loved, which was once home to me
