I'm coming home I'm coming home
Daddy
I love you daddy
I miss you daddy
Tobacco and leather baby
Come home
Come home
Damn— it's 1am and I'm writing this letter
Your mama hates sleeping alone but I promise I will get better
I just wanna leave behind something greater than memories and my old tattered sweaters
Smell of tobacco and leather
So when I write it's always late in the night
Then I'm up before light to hit the weights then 8-5
Like what a life to build the wealth I'm trying to leave you
Just know your daddy's grieving cause I hate to have to leave you
And while you're dreaming Daddy's dreaming of the season when He will not need a reason to take off work and spend a week in a Treehouse with you and mama or take a trip to Disneyland
So I keep grinding on the tracks
When I make 100 Gs in a year then I'm almost there
And my corporate employer gonna see me disappear
Cause my family is superior
You'll never be inferior
You and your mama will never be inferior
I love you daddy
I miss you daddy
I'm coming home I'm coming home
Come home
I'm coming home I'm on my way back home
I'm coming home I'm coming home
I look you in your eyes and see the better version of I
More curious more kind more innocent more time
And more time is all that's on my mind
But more time is hard to find
In the meantime I know I couldn't be more proud if I tried
I'll have your back even the times I cannot be by your side
I pray for your success and that your every need be supplied
So when you're asking questions I just hope I know the reply
You start talking like
Mommy why are you and daddy so tired?
Last night I had a dream that daddy couldn't even stop crying
And you and daddy were fighting
Daddy said he was trying—
I wish I knew how to answer without just lying
Truth is I know you see the world in bright hues and vivid colors
I'm determined not to let that be jaded by others
But daddy's vision is covered in sepia
And your mother is keeping you from the demons that sleep in the walls around the the compound
I love you daddy
I miss you daddy
Come home
I'm coming home I'm coming home
I'm coming home I'm on my way back home
Come home
I'm coming home I'm coming home
I love you daddy
I miss you daddy
Come home
