Feels Like Home
1choice Lyrics

Been calling you for months
I have been persistently trying to reach out to you for a long time.

But you never picking up
But you are consistently ignoring my attempts to communicate.

The excuses you giving me
The reasons you provide for not responding to me.

But I aint giving up
But I refuse to give up on our relationship.

Days turn to months
As time passes, the days have turned into months.

Finally answer your phone
Finally, you have decided to answer my call.

You gotta get away
You need to escape your current situation.

I can hear it in your tone
I can sense your desire to leave through the way you speak.

Of your voice when you speak
Through the intonation of your voice.

You gotta make a change
You need to make a significant change in your life.

Stay there with the boys
Stay where you are with your friends.

See what else it destroys
Observe the further destruction it causes.

Like the powerball
Similar to the uncontrollable force of a powerball.

Gotta be in it to win it
You have to actively participate to have a chance of succeeding.

Life's not a one night stand bruh
Life is not a temporary fling, my friend.

You cant just
You cannot simply

Hit it and quit it
Engage and then immediately end it.

Cant just send it packing nah
You can't just dismiss it, no way.

Life throws you a curve ball
Life presents unexpected challenges and obstacles.

You gotta be ready to whack it bruh
You need to be prepared to handle it, my friend.

Sometimes in your face
Sometimes directly in front of you

Sometimes from your mates
Sometimes it comes from those close to you.

Life ain't passive
Life is not inactive or indifferent.

It'll burn to ashes
It has the power to destroy completely.

Like some acid
Similar to corrosive acid.

If you let it
If you allow it to consume you.

Now its time to take control
Now is the moment to grasp the reins of your life.

Tryna do this alone
Attempting to navigate this journey on your own.

Wondering why the tornado
Questioning why the chaos and turmoil

Keep walking in your faith
Continues to disrupt and challenge your beliefs.

Cause you know He's gunna bring you home
Because you are aware that God will lead you back to a place of safety and belonging.

Follow His lead and you know He's gunna bring you home
If you trust and follow God's guidance, you are certain that He will guide you back to where you belong.

Though there's blood in your veins
Despite the presence of blood flowing through your veins

And air in your lungs
And the presence of air filling your lungs

We pray for a fallen brother
We offer our prayers for a comrade who is no longer with us.

We lost you way too young
We feel the sorrow of losing you at a young age.

All I heard was the pop pop
All I could hear were the sounds of gunshots.

Another brother another victim of a drive by
Yet another individual, a brother, who has fallen victim to a shooting from a passing vehicle.

Pretty soon we realised
Soon after, we came to understand

That he'd actually invited the bullet inside
That he had inadvertently welcomed danger into his life.

Opened up his heart to the cold metal of a gun
He exposed himself emotionally to the lethal weapon of a firearm.

It recoils as his body hits the streets
As his lifeless body falls to the ground, the gun's recoil is felt.

He looks up at me eventually he smiles
He gazes at me, and after a while, a smile forms on his face.

As he starts to hear deaths lullaby playing in his head
In his final moments, he begins to perceive the haunting melody of death's approach.

The lead seeping in
The toxic lead from the bullet slowly infiltrating

Poison his blood
Poisoning his bloodstream.

I'm not liking what its making him
I am troubled by the negative impact it is having on him.

What he's become
The person he has transformed into.

Thinking lust is love'll hang a brother out to dry
Believing that desire and infatuation is love will leave a person abandoned and vulnerable.

Make him forget the whole reason Jesus died
Causing him to lose sight of the fundamental purpose of Jesus' sacrifice.

In his head it's different
In his mind, he perceives it differently.

He doesn't scrutinize
He does not examine or analyze.

But instead hypnotised and paralysed
Rather, he is entranced and unable to act or think clearly.

Thinking this is paradise
Believing that this destructive lifestyle is a form of bliss.

Never wanted you to feel alone
I never desired for you to experience loneliness.

But this house no longer feels like home
However, this environment no longer provides a sense of comfort and belonging.

Looking back at the
Reflecting on

Troubles we've had
The difficulties we have encountered.

The times that I've been glad
The moments of joy and satisfaction.

And the times you made me mad
And the occasions when you angered me.

Most of our time were good
The majority of our experiences together were positive.

Sometimes they see bad
Occasionally, they may have appeared negative.

But I knew you had my back
However, I always knew that you were loyal and supportive.

Brotherhood ironclad
Our bond as brothers is unbreakable.

And I know you knew the message
And I am aware that you understood the underlying message.

from the lyrics that you spitting
That was conveyed through the lyrics you delivered.

The weight of sin be stripping
The burden of sin is gradually eroding

Thru the gospel that was written
Through the teachings of the written gospel.

But now so much has changed
However, now everything is different.

It's like looking at a stranger
It feels as if I am looking at a completely unfamiliar person.

Keep sending you encouragement
I continue to offer you words of support and motivation.

I'm sure you'll see it later
I am confident that eventually you will understand and appreciate it.

Heard it from a friend
Received the information through a mutual acquaintance.

Now you got a kid
Now you have become a parent.

Married to the bullet
Bound to the consequences of a bullet.

That made you trip and slid
That caused you to stumble and fall.

Bruh wish you best
My friend, I wish you all the best.

I'm praying for you daily
I pray for you every day.

Wonder if there was something
I ponder if there was anything

Could have done to stop the crazy
That could have been done to prevent the madness.

You'll always be a brother
You will forever remain a brother to me.

Could I have taken better care?
Is there something more I could have done to provide better support?

Watching this unfold
Observing this situation develop.

Just shows that life's unfair
It simply illustrates the unjust nature of life.

Looking back sadly
Reflecting with melancholy

At the day you went away
On the day you departed from this world.

Now October the 1st
Now the first day of October

Is my Remembrance Day
Holds significance as a day of remembrance for me.
