I Took It Home
Caesar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well the lightning struck in the family
Kinda moved them to the cemetery now
I looked out for some information
And I can't sleep with the agitation going down
Yeah going down

There's an angel down in 2nd street
He's got a whole lot of damage, but it doesn't bleed
It beamed down for some integration
But it can't leave for the gravitation keeps it down

Into the streets and out
Back on its feet and down
Looking at me alone
I took it home

I'm a nightmare boy of the 1st degree
Used to fall down from the highest tree
I dream a lot about the constellation
Where I came from till the great damnation brought me down
Yeah brought me down

There's an angel down in 2nd street
Who's got a whole lot of damage, but it doesn't bleed, no
It beamed down for some integration
Now he can't leave for the gravitation keeps it down

Into the streets and out
Back on its feet and down
Lookin at me alone
I took it home

Long for the constellation
Doodoodoo

Yeah going down
Into the streets and out
Back on its feet and down (down down down down)
Flyin at me alone (down down down down)
Into the streets and out (down down down down)
Back on its feet and down (down down down down)
Into the streets and out (down down down down)




Looking at me alone (down down down down)
I took it home

Overall, Caesar's "I Took It Home" is a complex and lyrical song that challenges the listener to examine its metaphors and themes. It speaks to the struggles of finding a place in a world that can be harsh and unforgiving.

Baby, baby
There will always be a space for you and me
Right where you left it
And just maybe
Enough time will pass
We'll look back and laugh
Just don't forget it
And maybe I'm wrong
For writing this song
Losing my head over you
And I'll be here
'Cause we both know how it goes
I don't want things to change
I pray they stay the same always
And I don't care
If you're with somebody else
I'll give you time and space
Just know I'm not a phase
I'm always, ways, ways
Always, ways, ways
I'm always, ways, ways

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

13 Thou shalt not kill.

14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.

15 Thou shalt not steal.

16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
