Home Ain't Never Home (Explicit)

Home Ain't Never Home - Defeater

I'm wandering these streets alone

They don't feel like home

This once hallowed ground

Feels like a ghost town now

I'm on the street corners everyday

At night I drink it away

And this flask that saved my life

Might be the death of me

And no man in this city

Will take a chance on me

The color of my skin

Is all they see

I was a hero when I came home

Now no one seems to know

And that medal that I received

Means nothing to me

I keep reading my momma's prayers

I find nothing in there

That makes any sense to me

Her god

Is no more

Than a thief

Gonna pack up

Gonna leave town

On a train car

Headed north bound

I'm gonna leave

I'm gonna leave

With my lost hope

I'm gonna get out

Carry burdens

Carry my guilt

I'm gonna leave

Carry burdens

Burdens

Burdens

My burdens

I watched the good men fall and brave boys die

Hearing soldiers sob in the dead of night

Every poor young soul that dies in vain

Every soldier lost in this country's name

I carry guilt and my shame

No pride and no name

Just burdens

Burdens

My burdens

My burdens

My guilt and my shame

No pride and no name

Just burdens
