Homesick
Tiko Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sorry that I lost my fight.
I couldn’t keep on going now;
just not without it feelin’ right.
I know what you’re telling me.
Still don’t wanna set you free.
So stop tryna tell me what I am.
What is true is I felt at home.
You were nowhere close, and that is known.
And I can tell you strongly that I'm right here.
And the only thing I want is to go back home.
And I’m feelin’ homesick, and there's nowhere to go.
Yea I’m missin’ your smile; I’m missin’ your flow.
I got a fire, fire in my heart.
I'm feelin’ homesick, and I’m far from home.
It's been so long since the last time that we talked,
And I mean really, really talked; none of that small talk.
What is happenin’? I know that I better go home and show that
Everything I did was for a reason.
I know that you know it too.
We would have been through.
Everything we dreamed about.
If we just wait a little second and go back home.
And I’m feelin’ homesick and there's nowhere to go.
Yea I still got your favorite toy on my bedside.
I got a fire, fire in my heart.
I'm feelin’ homesick, and I’m far from home.
Scary hours last all night.
Sorry that I lost my fight.
I couldn’t keep on going now;
just not without it feelin’ right.
I know what you’re telling me.
Still don’t wanna set you free.
So stop tryna tell me what I am.
And I’m homesick, homesick when I'm not with you.
Homesick, homesick; wanna be with you.
Homesick, homesick when I'm not with you.
Homesick, homesick; wanna be with you.
The lyrics to Tiko's song "Homesick" convey a deep sense of longing and nostalgia for a place called home. The opening lines, "Scary hours last all night. Sorry that I lost my fight. I couldn’t keep on going now; just not without it feelin’ right," suggest that the singer has been grappling with challenging and difficult times, perhaps feeling overwhelmed and defeated. The lack of something that feels "right" has made it difficult for them to continue without guidance or support.
The next verse expresses a strong desire to hold on to a relationship, even though the singer acknowledges that they should let go. They refuse to set the other person free, regardless of what they're being told. However, the singer reflects that true contentment and belonging were never found with the other person, as they were "nowhere close, and that is known." Despite this realization, all the singer wants is to return home, emphasizing the importance of finding a place where they feel safe and comfortable.
The chorus repeats the sentiment of feeling homesick, symbolizing a deep emotional ache for that sense of belonging. The absence of a smile and a flow, which could refer to the other person's presence, intensifies the longing. The singer carries a fire in their heart, representing a passion that drives them, and being far from home accentuates the feeling of homesickness.
In the second verse, the singer reflects on the lack of meaningful communication in their relationship, longing for a genuine conversation rather than superficial small talk. They feel a need to prove to the other person that the choices they've made were purposeful and worth it. The line "Everything I did was for a reason" suggests that the singer has made sacrifices and taken certain actions with a larger goal in mind. They believe that if they go back home and allow time to pass, everything they dreamed about with the other person could still come true.
The repetition of the chorus reinforces the enduring homesickness and the desire to be reunited with the person who represents home. The final lines, "Homesick, homesick; wanna be with you," express a longing to be with the other person and the deep connection they shared.
Overall, "Homesick" explores the yearning for a place of comfort and a sense of belonging, both symbolically and through the lens of a personal relationship.

@Tronex™ We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it
Inside we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
(Give you up)
(Ooh) Never gonna give, never gonna give
(Give you up)
We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it
Inside we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
