Back Where My Momma Lives
by Queen. Ce
Lyrics
Verse 1
I was only thirteen
Got caught with the kush
They looked at me sideways
Like I was already gone
No school wanted me
Troubled teen, bad news
My momma kept praying
For a better path home
Pre-Chorus
She sent me up north
Thinking dad could help
New province, new walls
Same fire in my chest
I still ran hot
Still broke the rules
Still had that edge
Still had too much to prove
Chorus
Back where my momma lives
Back where my momma lives
I came full circle now
And I’m still standing
Back where my momma lives
Back where my momma lives
Life ain’t that bad
When my family’s here
Verse 2
Didn’t really change
Just got harder to break
Little bit savage
With no fucks left to give
Now I’m thirty years deep
With my scars on display
I wear what I lived
Like a crown on my head
Pre-Chorus
I learned the long road
Can still bring you back
Learned the hard years
Don’t get the last laugh
What tried to bury me
Made my roots grow wild
And every wrong turn
Led me home in time
Chorus
Back where my momma lives
Back where my momma lives
I came full circle now
And I’m still standing
Back where my momma lives
Back where my momma lives
Life ain’t that bad
When my family’s here
Bridge
I know that pain
I know that shame
I know the name
They gave to me
But I’m still here
Still in the frame
Still got my people
Still got my name
Final Chorus
Back where my momma lives
Back where my momma lives
I came full circle now
And I’m still standing
Back where my momma lives
Back where my momma lives
Life ain’t that bad
When my family’s here
Back where my momma lives
Back where my momma lives
I know that now
Yeah, I know that now
