I'm Coming Home
Diddy - Dirty Money ft. Skylar Grey Lyrics

I'm coming home
I am returning to my true home, physically and mentally

Tell the world I'm coming home
Announce to everyone that I am coming back to where I belong

Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday
Metaphorically, all past sufferings and regrets will disappear naturally

I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I understand that my true community is welcoming me back and has let go of my past wrongdoings

I'm back where I belong, yeah I never felt so strong
I am in the place where I am meant to be, and I have never felt more confident and empowered

I feel like there's nothing that I can't try
I believe that I can do anything and achieve everything

And if you with me put your hands high
If you are beside me, show your support and raise your hands up high

If you ever lost a light before, this ones for you
This song is dedicated to those who have lost their way before

And you, the dreams are for you
The aspirations and ambitions are for you to pursue

I hear 'The Tears of a Clown', I hate that song
I cannot stand to listen to 'The Tears of a Clown' because it reminds me of my own pain and makes me feel like the lyrics are directed at me

Another day another Dawn, Another Keisha, nice to meet ya, get the math I'm gone
Every day I wake up to a new beginning, meet different people and move on after brief encounters

What am I 'posed to do when the club lights come on
When the night begins, what am I supposed to do as Puff Daddy vs. Sean Combs?

It's easy to be Puff, but its harder to be Sean
Being Puff Daddy is easy when I am in the public eye, but being Sean Combs in personal life is more difficult

What if the twins ask me why I ain't marry their mom (why, damn!)
What if my children ask me why I haven't married their mother?

How do I respond?
How should I answer their question?

What if my son stares with a face like my own and says he wants to be like me when he's grown
What if my child looks at me and admires me, wanting to take after me as they grow?

Shit! But I ain't finished growing
I am still growing and evolving, I may not be the best role model

Just tell Keisha and Taneisha I'll be back in the morn', Another lie that I carry on
Just inform Keisha and Taneisha that I will see them tomorrow, even though I am used to making empty promises

I need to get back to the place I belong
I urgently want to return to the environment and people who truly support me

Is a house really a home when your loved ones are gone (no)
Without people that you love around in a house, can it truly be your home? No

And niggas got the nerve to blame you for it
Others put the blame on me regarding my family missing in my own home

And you know you woulda took the bullet if you saw it
Feeling guilty, I should have been there to protect my loved ones, even if it meant getting hurt myself

But you felt it and still feel it
I experienced and continue to experience the pain and loss of my loved ones

And money can't make up for it or conceal it
Regardless of how much money I have, it cannot make up for nor hide the true emotions I feel

But you deal with it and you keep ballin'
Despite my struggles, I need to cope and keep moving forward

Pour out some liquor, play ball and we keep ballin'
Let's pay tribute to the lost with some alcohol and find solace in continuing to achieve greatness and succeed

Baby we've been living in sin 'cause we've been really in love, But we've been living as friends
Although we truly love each other, we have been living together while compromising our true feelings

So you've been a guest in your own home, It's time to make your house your own
You have been treated like a visitor in your own home; it is now time to change that and take full ownership

Pick up your phone, come on
Call me, I want us to start fresh and truly be together as a couple

'Ain't No Stopping Us Now', I love that song
I am motivated by 'Ain't No Stopping Us Now,' it empowers me and enlightens me that nothing can halt progress

Whenever it comes on it makes me feel strong
Whenever I listen to it, I am transformed with the encouragement of strength

I thought I told y'all that we won't stop
I previously announced that nothing can hinder our success, and that statement still stands today

'Til we back cruising through Harlem, these old blocks
We will continue until we are cruising through our success, and reminiscing on where we came from

Is what made me, saved me, drove me crazy
My upbringing and past experiences mold me into the person I am today, while saving me along the way; driving me to the brink of insanity

Drove me away than embraced me, Forgave me for all of my shortcomings
My community welcomed me back even after pushing them away at one point; forgiving me for all of my shortcomings

Welcome to my homecoming
This is me, I have finally risen and arrived

Lot of fights, lot of scars, lot of bottles
I have been through a lot, fought through pain and heartbreak, and drank a lot in the process

Lot of cars, lot of ups, lot of downs, Made it back, lost my dog (I miss you big)
I've experienced trials and tribulations along with some successes, but still mourning the loss of a dear animal companion

And here I stand, a better man! (a better man)
I have been through the struggles and the pains, but in the face of adversity, I have grown and am a better version of myself because of it

Thank you Lord (Thank you Lord) Thank you all!
Thank you to God and everyone who has supported me along the way
