Blaine Bailey - Home Again Lyrics

Well I've been on one hell of a roll
But on the downhill side
Since I fiercely abandoned my home
For the city lights
And they sure do shine so bright
Standing far away
So bright that they can make you blind
To your honest ways
I'm tryna make a one man stand
At this mean ol' world
Without knowing the lay of the land
Or what's about to unfurl
It took a few good tribulations
To get a real clear view
That the ones you think you can trust
Just gonna turn on you
So I'm headed back to allotted land
Where my sisters and my mother hold an open hand
They say dear boy where have you been
I said down in a well but I'm home again
I ask the lord to lend a hand
And he just shakes his head
He said you need to help yourself out boy
Before you wind up dead
And I'm my own worst enemy
I can't shake the past
Killing me from the inside
Oh how the hard times last
So I'm headed back to allotted land
Where my sisters and my mother hold an open hand
They say dear boy where have you been
I said down in a well but I'm home again
