Lyrics

I Wanna Go Home
I Wanna Go Home

I don't think you really know
Where I wanna go (no no no
I wanna go to a place
There's no race to my face

I said I wanna go home
To the place where I belong
I wanna go home
To the place where I was born

The smell in the air
Is like no other
Music & the streets
Has to recover

The sounds of the language
Can never be replaced
The memories, the love
The journey, the place

Trapped and abandoned
Drowned by father nature
Broken and Depressed
Ohhhh how they hatecha

Don't touch the burning bush
Which came straight from hell
How can he look them in the face
What more lies can they tell

Can't forget the taste,
Can't forget the sound
Can't forget the people
Oh we let them down

Can't forget their face,
Can't forget their brown
Can't forget the people
Oh we let them down

Please give them Grace,
The ones that can't be found
Can't forget the people
God don't let us down

I don't think you really know
Where I wanna go (no no no
I wanna go to a place
There's no race to my face

I said I wanna go home
To the place where I belong
I wanna go home
To the place where I was born

Can't forget the taste
Can't forget the sound
Can't forget the people
Oh we let them down
Can't forget their face
Can't forget their brown
Can't forget the people
sorry we let you down

Where is my mother
There floats my pops
Where is my brother
My mind just flip-flops

get it from her mamma
Was the phrase that paid
forgot to rescue momma
let her drown in her grave

Torn from the cribs of life
Ripped from their mother's chest
Floating away lifelessly
Reaching for their mother's breast

Nawleans, the word, the phrase
Will never be the same
So much history and culture
Oh From that place came

Livin like a 3rd world country
Right in the U.S. of A
But Why should anybody be surprised
He cheated to get in anyway

I don't think you really know
Where I wanna go (no no no
I wanna go to a place
There's no race to my face

I said I wanna go home
To the place where I belong
I wanna go home
To the place where I was born

I don't think you really know
I don't think you really know
I don't think you really know
Where I wanna go
I wanna go home
To the place where I belong
I wanna go home
To the place where I was born
(prayer)
Please give them grace the once that can't be found
Please forgive us humans sorry we let you down
