[Chorus: Mike Marshall]
I’ve been waiting for the day (waiting for the day)
That i’d be going home again (going home)
I’ve been away from family way too long
But I know I’ll soon be home again
[Verse 1: E-40]
Ugh, life ain't promised tomorrow that’s what they say
Look what i say life ain't promised today
A lot of folks outta work right now, latin, white and black
So we count on obama care and america’s job welfare
Where i’m from is ugly not pretty it’s all bad it ain't good
The pizza man don’t even wanna come to my hood
Robberies crime scenes being seeing it often
And the most lucrative business is selling coffins
Society is two faced to a lot of folks that was well off then fell on hard times
The sign of the times family fallin out with family a whole lot of mess
I wish we had more positive speakers like dr. Cornell west
My niece wanna be a cosmetologist, my nephew a chef
But without a scholarship, a student loan will put them both in debt
Now that’s a catch 23 man that’s not a catch 22 caz I’d be damned if I don’t and damn if I do
My relative just got out the state but now he headed to the feds
On some trumped up charges that he didn’t did
But as soon as he come home we goin make a prison spread
Got some ramen noodles, some mayonnaise and tuna, some cheese and potato chips
I’ve been waiting for the day (waiting for the day)
That i’d be going home again (going home)
I’ve been away from family way too long
But I know I’ll soon be home again
[Verse 1: E-40]
Ugh, life ain't promised tomorrow that’s what they say
Look what i say life ain't promised today
