Journey Home: Finding Hope Amidst Life's Trials
Lyrics
I see no way
I'm unable to find a solution
How to smile while I fight the pain
Struggling with pain but trying to maintain a positive outlook
Momma said it'd be all okay
Reassurance from mother that everything will be fine
Them sunny days they gon' be on the way
Expectation of better times ahead, particularly sunny days
Keep the faith, boy
An encouragement to maintain faith despite challenges
It's been 365 since I been to my hometown
365 days since the artist visited hometown
Lost touch with some friends I don't know how
Lost connection with friends and uncertain how to reconnect
Wonder how they been, hope we make amends
Curiosity about friends' well-being and a hope for reconciliation
So when we're older we can catch up on the time we missed
Desire to reconnect with friends in the future
No matter where I go
The challenge of staying true to oneself regardless of location
Try to fly high through the lows
Striving to maintain a positive attitude during difficult times
Didn't have too much, but it was all we know
Reflecting on a modest past and its impact
Good god I pray, find my way back home
Praying for guidance to find the way back home
Sweet Virginia, Sweet Virginia
Expressing a deep connection and longing for Sweet Virginia
I know it's been too long
-If I die in LA, bury me back home
-Lord knows when I'll go, keep saying I'ma right my wrongs
-Before I fly away, just let me take that road to
-Sweet Virginia, Sweet Virginia
Repeating the desire to return to Sweet Virginia before death
I know it's been too long
-If I die it's okay, just bury me back home
-Lord knows when I'll go, keep saying I'ma right my wrongs
-Before I fly away, let me take that road
-Back to the place I love
Expressing love for the home, acknowledging both sides of Virginia
From the northside of Virginia
-But the southside show me love
-Had to get it out the mud
Highlighting resilience, overcoming challenges, and self-reliance
Came out through the storm
-Nobody gave me nothing
-Had to get it on my own, see
-Out in Caicos for like five days in a villa I done seen it all
Reflecting on experiences in Caicos, memories of father, and yearning for simplicity
Got ten toes in the water
-But memories of my father
-And all the time we spent, make these good times feel harder
-It was all good back then, I don't want more I need the road
Expressing contentment with the past and a desire for the road
I need hope in these times alone
Seeking hope during lonely times
Drive back to the place, where I first found love
Returning to the place where love was first found
We didn't have too much, but it was all we know
Reflecting on a modest past and its impact
Good god I pray, I find my way back home
Praying to find the way back home
Sweet Virginia, Sweet Virginia
Repeated expression of longing for Sweet Virginia and a desire for redemption
I know it's been too long
-If I die in LA, bury me back home
-Lord knows when I'll go, keep saying I'ma right my wrongs
-Before I fly away, just let me take that road to
-Sweet Virginia, Sweet Virginia
Continuation of the theme of yearning for Sweet Virginia and redemption
I know it's been too long
-If I die it's okay, just bury me back home
-Lord knows when I'll go, keep saying I'ma right my wrongs
-Before I fly away, just let me take that road to
-Sweet Virginia, Sweet Virginia
Final repetition of the longing for Sweet Virginia and the desire to make amends
I know it's been too long
-If I die it's okay, just bury me back home
-Lord knows when I'll go, keep saying I'ma right my wrongs
-Before I fly away, just let me take that road
