Homecoming - Derek Minor

God I'm thankful for a relationship
And this crown doesn't mean a thing
I thank you for all that you have in store for me
And I pray that I will forever be used for your glory
I Love You Always Amen
She has a life so beautiful
Christian down to cuticle
You know the type girl that everybody sorta know
With big dreams opportunity and plenty hope
Great family the type to take stranger in
Her and mom get pedicures they like besta friends
Dad said she can finally date when the year begins
The starting quarterback and she'll be back before 10
Cutest couple that you will ever see
After dating for months they bought each other promise rings
It's the summer and determined to see their love grow
So they book a site to see how far their love goes
They take it to a place reserved for only married folks
After it happened a place again they said they'd never go
They DID
So much for being celibate
7 weeks later she find out that she pregnant
Man got a scholarship he don't wanna ruin it
This my senior year a marriage I am not pursuing it
So they break up right before the baby's born
She drop out of school and leave the house it's time to move on
Waiting tables for years just to pay the rent
Everything was cool 'til the baby father walks in
Lost a job that day cause of an argument
I ain't see you in years and you act like I don't exist
Never met your daughter you're a deadbeat father
I'm glad you injured your leg and your career ain't go farther
She threw a glass at him just laughed at him
Making a scene so the co workers grabbed her
Kicked her off the premise escorted by the manager
What I'ma do now we were already barely managing
Headed home she heard a party next door
It's her home girl teresa she said what you sad for
I got fired Hold up Say no more
Snort a line of this it'll lift you off the floor
And she did hit after hit month after month year after year
That meth got her sprung and she be gone for days
She don't even look the same
I don't think her daughter is safe
THEY TOOK MY *******KID
THEY TOOK MY *******KID
Mom and Dad came and got her through Child Services
What do they except had a baby at eighteen
My baby daddy left me
It's the only time I'm free
I was homecoming queen
Now I'm queen of the line
They say that I'm a d**e thing
I see demons in my dreams
Do whatever but this house
To whatever if they try
I can never kick this habit
What's the point to even to try
Understand I've been through this
NO WAY THERE'S A GOD
If there is then he hates me
WHY AM I ALIVE
I just wanna go home but its decade out in crime
But I've done so much wrong
I feel like I deserve to die
They say Jesus You can fix it
In my home there's a child
And if I can be forgiven of my sins right now
Will if I can be forgiven of my sins right now
I'd give it all to you I'd get you here right now
Pops in the car
Puts to the pedal to floor
Drive to her parents' house
Her daughter answer the door
She tells her
Baby I'm sorry I wish that I could be more
But with your love
I promise things will be different than before
So will you forgive me I know I don't deserve it
But please forgive me
Welcome home let the drummers play and the trumpets blow
Welcome home we prayed and prayed for you for so long so long so long
Welcome home Welcome HOME Welcome Home
Welcome Home
