[Intro]
If this is home, then why am I feelin' homesick?
Lost in my location that I've outgrown, uh
It's all I've known, and I think that's a problem
Think about it often, I gotta go
[Verse 1]
I'm tired of sleepin', yeah, I'm always dreamin' 'bout my pillow (If this is)
I really hate seein' all this tumbleweed rollin' past my window (If this is)
'Cause I wanna wake up to a movie scene
I wanna live out all my wildest dreams
See the world is movin' fast, but I can't pass zero
No, I can't 'cause
[Chorus]
If this is home, then why am I feelin' homesick?
Lost in my location that I've outgrown, uh
It's all I've known, and I think that's a problem
Think about it often, I gotta go, uh
The country ain't for me (Ah)
Need a city that don't sleep (Ah), yeah
'Cause this ain't home, and that's why I feel homesick
I gotta go, go, go
[Post-Chorus]
Ayy, I gotta leave, yeah (Go, go, go, go)
Uh, I gotta leave (Go, go, go, go)
Trust, likе
[Verse 2]
I need a new life switch up to the high-risе balconies (I said, if this is home)
I need some big nights blinded by some street lights, yes, indeed (Yeah, uh, if this is home)
Give me another view, a different temperature
I'm only talkin' truth, don't shoot the messenger
Said I'm gone, I'm glidin', slidin' out for me, uh
For me
[Chorus]
If this is home, then why am I feelin' homesick?
Lost in my location that I've outgrown, uh
It's all I've known, and I think that's a problem
Think about it often, I gotta go, uh
The country ain't for me (Ah)
Need a city that don't sleep (Ah), yeah
'Cause this ain't home, and that's why I feel homesick
I gotta go, go, go (I gotta go, I gotta go)
[Post-Chorus]
Ayy, I gotta leave, yeah (Go, go, go, go)
Uh, I gotta leave (Go, go, go, go)
Trust, like, I gotta leave, yeah (Go, go, go, go)
See, I gotta leave, uh, I gotta leave, yeah
[Outro]
If this is home, then why am I feelin' homesick?
Lost in my location that I've outgrown, uh
It's all I've known, and I think that's a problem
Think about it often, I gotta go, uh

A lot of the time I write about heartbreak, and I guess that’s why this song means a lot to me, because it’s different. It’s a proper story and something I was feeling for a long time. Growing up in the countryside was beautiful, don’t get me wrong, but I always felt kind of stuck. The lack of oppor...
