Lyrics
Finally leaving home packed up
Expressing the act of finally leaving home, packing up belongings.
Say goodbye to mom
Bidding farewell to the mother.
She said remember right from wrong
Mother's advice to remember right from wrong.
Oh my baby how you've grown
Expressing parental pride in the growth of the child.
Pops he opens up says I'm proud of you my son
Father expressing pride and acknowledging the anticipated departure.
We knew that this day would come
Acknowledging the inevitability of the day to leave home.
Find your path you're not alone
Encouragement to find one's path with the reassurance of not being alone.
One day I might look back and think why did I think this was hard at all
Contemplation about future reflections on the perceived difficulty of leaving home.
Right now I cant hold back all the things that I keep feeling being gone
Immediate emotional struggle and difficulty in holding back feelings of departure.
Life gets hard for some time
Acknowledgment that life can be challenging at times.
I've spent all of my life by your side
A lifetime spent alongside a parent.
I know that you're proud by the tears in your eyes
Recognition of parental pride through observed tears in the father's eyes.
I've grown but not ready to say my goodbyes
Expressing personal growth but not yet ready to say goodbye.
I'm not ready to say my goodbyes
Reiteration of the unpreparedness to say farewell.
I never noticed till I turned around
Realization that the primary goal is to make the mother proud.
That all I wanna do is make my momma proud
Acknowledging the desire to make the mother proud upon reflection.
Missing home 1000 miles out
Feeling homesick while being a significant distance away.
I know she's praying for me now
Acknowledging the mother's prayers for the well-being of the child.
Something bout that look when he said goodbye
Reflecting on the emotional impact of saying goodbye, particularly the father's expression.
His face wrote a story I couldn't describe
Noting that the father's face tells a story that is difficult to put into words.
But you know I'm just one call away
Expressing the availability and closeness despite physical distance.
One day I might look back and think why did I think this was hard at all
Anticipation of future reflections on the perceived difficulty of leaving home.
Right now I cant hold back all the things that I keep feeling being gone
Continued emotional struggle and difficulty in holding back feelings of departure.
Life gets hard for some time
Reiteration that life can be challenging at times.
I've spent all of my life by your side
Reflecting on a lifetime spent alongside a parent.
I know that you're proud by the tears in your eyes
Reaffirmation of parental pride through observed tears in the father's eyes.
I've grown but not ready to say my goodbyes
Expressing personal growth but not yet ready to say goodbye.
I'm not ready to say my goodbyes
Reiteration of the unpreparedness to say farewell.
Life gets hard for some time
Reiteration that life can be challenging at times.
I've spent all of my life by your side
Reflecting on a lifetime spent alongside a parent.
I know that you're proud by the tears in your eyes
Reaffirmation of parental pride through observed tears in the father's eyes.
