Homecoming
Add-2 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
because the only real danger that exists is man himself
He is the great danger and we are pitifully unaware of it
And the lack of awareness is unfortunately too real
I'm highly disturbed by my findings by the way
But here we are
Yo
Look I take dancehall, mix it with hip hop present it to disc jocks
And some of y'all heard O2dR's always going for the bars
and I'm sorry for the mixup
Only spirit inside of my cup is the God of the scriptures
Looking forward to the homecoming
While folks tryna tell me that you won't come
Well the whole lot of them have a next guess coming
When you nah expect nun, you should expect sum'
Thief in the night type of vibe
I really don't know how else I can express "sudden"
Reckless summers (Turn up)
A.K.A. hot girl summers (That's right)
Til covid hits and it's not your summer
Come for me if you want
Y'all know where to find me
Chilling in The Rock like Saddam (Rock)
Tryna tell cops and thugs on the block and girls in abortion clinics that Black Lives Matter (They do)
When you say it's not my problem
Lucifer's like "got em"
Yo we the best and worst thing that God created and it's not debatable
I'm not the greatest at tryna hide what I'm tryna say
And it's not courageous so I won't
Think I'll stop creating, I won't
Think y'all can stop my paper, y'all wont
I figured I'd walk away from y'all's conversations
I'll try to pray for y'all folks
I fight fire with a firefighter's uniform on I can handle smoke
Y'all got jokes
And we no fear no retaliation either
Man ah gangster and we have guns
Spiritually and otherwise lol
But in all seriousness the source of my confidence is God
And nothing else
Yah
Watch it deh
Watch it deh
Confident say God is watching me
Confident say God is watching me
Angels dispatch if I fall and they catching me
Yah
God you never turn your back to me
It means a lot to me
Woke up in the night time and dancehall was right side of me
Trust me, I do it
Just know my anatomy different
I feel like people should chat to me different
You no mek moves like statues,
We different
You no waan walk out pon water like God don't got you
And that's how we different
Me have lyrics fi dash way
Your lyrics need fi dash way
And that's how we different
You no waan show love to the people whe don't show love back to you, got you
We different
And I'm not the religious type
Try know whenever you see this guy him just a imitate Jesus
Me jus ah
Me jus ah tek in the things of God
And push out the things of the world like carbon dioxide
Fall short, but never stop trying
Not a backside
Just ah wonder how dem ago stop me
Wonder how dem ago stop me
(Please tell me)
My God is a way maker
Overstand Him ah di factory
I'm one of the kindest
Giving you better deliveries than Amazon prime
I'm still in my prime
I gotta remind you
Ain't no kinda
I'm killing it
We know nothing of man
Far too little
His psyche should be studied
Because we are the origin of all coming evil
In the first paragraph of the lyrics, Add-2 highlights the need for a deeper understanding of human nature. He suggests that the greatest danger to society comes from humans themselves, but unfortunately, many people are unaware of this fact. This lack of awareness is a concern for Add-2, and he expresses his disturbance at this realization.
Moving on to the next paragraph, Add-2 discusses his musical style and the influence of different genres like dancehall and hip hop. He acknowledges the criticism he has received for his emphasis on lyrical content (bars), but assures his listeners that his inspiration comes from a spiritual source - the God of the scriptures. He looks forward to a homecoming, despite those who doubt it will happen, and warns that unexpected things can occur when we least anticipate them.
The third paragraph delves into various societal issues. Add-2 talks about the carefree nature of summers, referencing the popular phrase "hot girl summer." However, the outbreak of COVID-19 changes the dynamics, affecting everyone's plans. He also addresses the importance of the Black Lives Matter movement, urging people to recognize the value of black lives and not dismiss it as someone else's problem. He remarks on the contradictory nature of humanity, both capable of being the best and worst creations of God, and emphasizes that this is not up for debate.
In the fourth paragraph, Add-2 expresses his resilience and determination. He acknowledges his shortcomings but states that he will not let anything stop him from creating. He distances himself from certain conversations and prays for those who oppose him. He asserts that he can handle any challenge, comparing himself to a firefighter who can withstand smoke. Although humorous at times, he also highlights the seriousness of his confidence, attributing it solely to God's presence in his life.
The closing lines reiterate the significance of God's watchfulness and protection, with Add-2 expressing gratitude for always feeling guided by a higher power. He acknowledges his distinct perspective and asserts that people should approach him differently, as he believes his connection with God sets him apart. He rejects conformity to the ways of the world and emphasizes his commitment to God. Finally, he reflects on the importance of continuing to strive and try one's best, even when falling short, and suggests that understanding the complexities of human nature is crucial as it is the root of all evil in the world.

The inner workings of his mind should be thoroughly examined
Because we are the origin of all coming evil
Because we are the root cause of future malevolence
