Take Me Home
Insane Clown Posse Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

you know the irony of life is that you have like
this big dream to get where you want to be
but once you get there you start to dream about where you came from.
I guess that's the part of the circle of our lives
like the hands of a clock going round.
if only we could wind them back and return to a time where the dream began.
its all too soon that's all will be is a dream in someones mind.
Look at me I'm famous on top of the world,
I finally reached up in time (im a superstar)
stand up, step back and take a look
is this really whut I had in mind? (i don't really think so)
I guessed them goals that we set in the day,
they actually came to be. (yup yup)
but now I'm lookin at a black white paper,
and with a whole book of memories (but we never read)

seven deep in the jeep with the camel top,
everybody and they drunk as hell,
?? and awesome dre and anybody by the right would see us
(cause we always went there)
songs were long and pollution strong, and the faygo always warm and flat
(thats nasty)
but if now if this supposed to be heaven for me, then just give me my own
hell back

so take me home
(to my empty refridgerator)
c'mon and take me home
(to a life in which I understand)
so take me home
(to my old school down in delray)
c'mon and take me home
??

(cmon cmon) lets go y'all

there's another festival down town,
take some bottles back up to the store
(i found two of em)
that would get us bus money down there
to get back we have to find some more
(might as well get drunk)
hangin our flyers up everywhere,
we coulda sworn we was makin noise,
(everybody knew us)
finally we had everyone in southwest
representin with the jj boys (everybody)

I stole to eat (i stole)
I stole to live (i stole)
I stole only to survive (if yous a hoodlum)
just like j said in 'ghetto zone' I stole a car with my tape inside
all we did was try to talk to hoes,
and none of them was tryin to hear (not 1 hoe)
it woulda meant so much more back then
cause now its fake hoes everywhere

so take me home
(to my empty refridgerator)
c'mon and take me home
(to a life in which I understand) (where you at y'all?)
so take me home
(to my old school down in delray) (summer time)
c'mon and take me home (delray)

mike p y'all

southern rock for ya

rudeboy

oh lord don't let me get my girlfriends call
if she don't get off until two (we got all night long)
I finally show up at 4:30 am
and I still have to drop my crew off (but i'll be back)
now I'm alone and ontop of it all,
looking deep in the back of my mind (looking deep in the back of my mind)
I realised the key to a happy life
was right here wit me the whole time

Chorus x2
so take me home
(to my empty refridgerator)
c'mon and take me home
(to a life in which I understand)
so take me home
(to my old school down in delray) (where you at?)
c'mon and take me home

cause you remember how things were back in the day

together there as powerful as my unity
and i've been blessed to have my family

I was born and raised in ramulous

'cause it's real, it's all about family
I'm quite I don't say much and I'm shy
any minute though I might sting your eye

i'll hax anyone that ever messed with my family

Overall Meaning

The song "Take Me Home" by Insane Clown Posse explores the irony of life when one achieves their dreams and finds themselves dreaming about where they originally came from. The lyrics talk about reaching the peak of success and wondering if it's really what was wanted. Memories of being young, having ambitions, and struggling with day-to-day life are juxtaposed with current success. The lyrics are nostalgic, reminiscing about the past and wishing to return to a simpler time, even though the present is everything one dreamt of before.


The song portrays a desire to return to the familiar, depicting memories of drinking with friends, hanging up flyers, stealing food to survive, and chasing girls. The chorus repeatedly yearns to be back home, where life was simpler and more understandable. The song highlights the value of family and how essential it is to have them in one's life to live happily.


Line by Line Meaning

you know the irony of life is that you have like this big dream to get where you want to be but once you get there you start to dream about where you came from.
Life is funny in that you always want to move forward but as soon as you achieve something, you start to long for the past. It's like a never-ending cycle.


I guess that's the part of the circle of our lives like the hands of a clock going round.
This cycle is just a part of our lives that's as regular as the hands of a clock going round.


if only we could wind them back and return to a time where the dream began.
If it were possible, we'd go back in time and relive the moment when our dreams first started.


its all too soon that's all will be is a dream in someones mind.
The only thing left will be memories of the dreams we once had.


Look at me I'm famous on top of the world, I finally reached up in time (im a superstar) stand up, step back and take a look is this really whut I had in mind? (i don't really think so)
Now that I'm famous and successful, I've achieved everything I wanted to, but it's different from how I imagined it would be. It's not really what I had in mind.


I guessed them goals that we set in the day, they actually came to be. (yup yup) but now I'm lookin at a black white paper, and with a whole book of memories (but we never read)
The goals we set earlier in life have all been accomplished, but now I'm left without any further direction. It's like I have a blank piece of paper in front of me and a book full of memories that we never bothered to read.


seven deep in the jeep with the camel top, everybody and they drunk as hell, ?? and awesome dre and anybody by the right would see us (cause we always went there) songs were long and pollution strong, and the faygo always warm and flat (thats nasty)
We used to hang out with seven people in a jeep with a camel top, all of us drunk. Anybody passing by would notice us because we were always there. We would listen to long songs and drink flat and warm Faygo, which is gross.


but if now if this supposed to be heaven for me, then just give me my own hell back so take me home (to my empty refridgerator) c'mon and take me home (to a life in which I understand) (to my old school down in delray)
If this is supposed to be my idea of heaven, then I want nothing to do with it. Just take me back home, where I had an empty refrigerator and a life I understood. Take me to my old school in Delray.
