I'm Coming Home
Diddy feat Skylar Grey Lyrics

I'm coming home, I'm coming home
I am returning to my true home

Tell the world I'm coming home
Announcing my return to the world

Let the rain wash away
Letting go of yesterday's pain and troubles

All the pain of yesterday
The pain and suffering of the past are being left behind

I know my kingdom awaits
My true purpose and future success are waiting for me

And they've forgiven my mistakes
The people who I may have wronged have forgiven me

Tell the world that I'm coming
Making it clear to everyone that I am returning

I'm back where I belong (uh, yea)
Returning to the place and life that feels true to me

I never felt so strong (yeah) (I'm back baby)
Feeling empowered and capable of facing anything

I'm feelin' like there's nothing that I can't try (uh) (nothin')
Feeling confident and willing to take on any challenge

And if you with me put your hands high (yeah) (put your hands high)
If you support me, show it with your actions

If you ever lost a life before (hey)
If you have ever experienced loss or struggle

This one's for you (and if you with me put your hands high, high) (and you)
This is a song for anyone who has faced hardship and has come out stronger

Your dreams fulfilled, you rockin' with the best (hey) (and you, and you)
Your aspirations have been achieved and you are now thriving with the best

I'll be home soon
I will be back home soon

I hear the "Tears of a Clown"
Hearing a song that resonates with my emotions

Uh, I hate that song
Disliking the emotional effect the song has on me

I always feel like they're talking to me, when it comes on (come on)
Feeling like the song is directly speaking to my own experiences

Another day, another dawn
Starting a new day

Another Keisha, nice to meet ya, get the math, I'm gone
Meeting new people, but quickly leaving to continue my own journey

What am I supposed to do when the club lights come on?
Uncertainty about how to act when in high-pressure or celebratory situations

It's easy to be Puff but it's harder to be Sean (come on)
It is easy to put on a show, but being true to myself is a challenge

What if my twins ask me why I ain't marry their mom? (Why?)
Questioning how to explain complicated decisions to loved ones

Damn, how do I respond?
Feeling unsure about how to answer difficult questions

What if my son stares with a face like my own
Fearing that my mistakes and flaws will be inherited by my child

And says he wants to be like me when he's grown?
Feeling the pressure of being a role model for my child

Shit! But I ain't finished growing
Acknowledging that I am still making mistakes and learning

Another night, the inevitable prolongs
Going through the struggles and battles that come with life

Just tell Keisha and Teresa I'll be better in the morn' (I'll be better in the morn')
Promising to improve and overcome obstacles, as well as acknowledging the support of important people in my life

Another lie that I carry on
Holding onto false images or situations

I need to get (yeah) back to the place where I belong (let's go)
The desire to return to a genuine, supportive environment

A House Is Not a Home," I hate this song
Disliking a song that highlights the pain and sorrow of losing loved ones

Is a house really a home when your loved ones is gone? (No)
Questioning whether a living space can really feel like a home without the presence of important people

And niggas got the nerve to blame you for it (come on)
Feeling unfairly blamed for someone's absence

And you know you woulda took the bullet if you saw it (that's right)
Feeling like you would have done anything to change the outcome

But you felt it, and still feel it
Experiencing the emotional pain of the situation

And money can't make up for it or conceal it (or conceal it)
No amount of wealth or resources can undo the pain of loss

But you deal with it (deal with it), and you keep ballin' (that's right)
Finding ways to cope and carry on despite the pain

Pour out some liquor, playboy, and we keep ballin' (ballin')
Celebrating life and pushing forward despite challenges

Baby, we've been living in sin
Recognizing that we have been living outside of societal norms

'Cause we been really in love, but we been living as friends (yeah)
Acknowledging that the love between two people does not always fit within prescribed labels or standards

So you've been a guest in your own home (come on)
Feeling like an outsider in the space that should be most comfortable and familiar

It's time to make your house your home (yeah) pick up your phone (pick up the phone)
Taking steps to make my living situation feel more comfortable and intimate

Tell the world that I'm coming home (I'm coming home)
Spreading the word of my return

"Ain't No Stopping Us Now," I love that song
Finding joy and inspiration in a positive song

Whenever it comes on, it makes me feel strong
Feeling motivated and empowered by the song

I thought I told y'all that we won't stop (we won't stop)
Declaring that there is no stopping the progress and growth

'Til we back cruising through Harlem, these old blocks (yeah)
Continuing to push forward until reaching a certain level of achievement

It's what made me, saved me, drove me crazy (oh, oh, yeah, yeah)
The struggles and experiences have shaped and defined who I am

Drove me away, then embraced me (come on, let's go)
Feeling pushed away and then welcomed back into certain environments or communities

Forgave me for all of my shortcomings
Being shown mercy and given another chance despite past mistakes

Welcome to my homecoming
Officially returning to a place or community

Yeah, it's been a long time coming
The journey to this point has been a difficult and lengthy one

Lot of fights, lot of scars, lot of bottles, lot of cars
Reflecting on the difficult but ultimately worthwhile experiences leading to this moment

Lot of ups, lot of downs made it back, lost my dog (I miss you Big!)
Experiencing highs and lows, overcoming obstacles, and mourning the loss of loved ones

But here I stand (come on) a better man (don't stop)
Standing tall and proud despite challenges, and striving for personal growth and improvement

Thank you, Lord! (Thank you, Lord!)
Expressing gratitude to a higher power for making this moment possible

Thank you all
Showing appreciation for the people who have supported me

I'm coming home, I'm coming home (oh)
Returning to where I belong

Let the rain wash away (feel so good)
Cleansing and purifying myself of negative emotions

All the pain of yesterday (feel so free)
Letting go of past hurt and heartache

I know my kingdom awaits (ain't no place like home, baby)
Feeling confident and secure in knowing that my true purpose and happiness lie in returning home

And they've forgiven my mistakes (ain't no place like home)
Receiving forgiveness and acceptance from those who I may have wronged

I'm coming home (I'm coming home), I'm coming home (I'm coming home)
Repeating the message of my imminent return

Tell the world I'm coming (tell the world I'm coming home)
Spreading the news of my exciting homecoming
