All my life I've been trying to get back home
Just now realized that place is gone
No more soft grass, blue skies, or that willow tree
Just lights that drown out the stars, concrete as far as the eye can see
Can't say I regret all my choices or mistakes
They are the things that led me to this place
Not just this location but in my life
Led me to want to be strong, crave to be a wife
Turned me on to lyrical poetry, gave me insight
Lent me courage to battle injustice and love for the fight
No one can ever say that I did what I thought was wrong
Still I keep holding on to things that have been gone long
