Home Is Where the Heart Is

I feel the morning sun, walking to the bus stop
I got my backpack, books and my lunch box
Let’s travel back, so you can capture that
Old school image like an Ansel Adams hasselblad
I was on the 208 passing Castlecrag
Headphones pumping, listening to classic rap
Rocked up at school, yeah I was the misfit
Cause I had an accent, bullied by some bitch kids
But this one dude Max, he was a friend of me
We bonded over Cube, Eddie Murphy and Public Enemy
Reciting lines, we’d rap and laugh in a free state
Rolling with our handicapped mate so we could be late to class
Shout out to Bates, we couldn’t hear one teach
In the back sharing an ear bud each
Just waiting for lunch when it was B-Ball galore
And back then I swear, we were gonna be pro for sure
After school I went to JP’s fortress
He made beats, and that’s where me and Macka recorded
See Nug had given him our first beat machine to rock right
Cause we couldn’t figure it out, like 'What the fuck is quantize?'
Then Tarik came over for the first time
Blowing us away with cuts to compliment the verse rhyme
Like the missing piece seeing him perform
And that’s the night, baby, BnE was born, what a day
Home is where the heart is so hip-hop is right here
Home is where the heart is so hip-hop is right here
Home is where the heart is so hip-hop is right here
Home is where the heart is so hip-hop is right here
Rolling down the road that I know is my home
It’s alright, it’s okay, yeah
Rolling down the road that I know is my home
It’s alright, it’s okay, yeah
I awake feeling great while my queen’s asleep
My best-friend and lover is what she means to me
She pulls pranks while I least expect it
Trying to make me laugh while I’m eating breakfast
Wife-beater on, throwing out the garbage
Realising that home is where the heart is
Take the dog for a run in the park
A sneaky billy then we jump in the car
Check the fuel, I hope we got some
Let my baby drive, rappers ride shotgun
Then we play fight, when we choose songs
Then we compromise and throw a groove on
Where we go next builds another chapter
As long as we’re together then it really doesn’t matter
Cause we’re two lovers on an open road
Where we’re going, brother, no one knows
We connect, and make the world stop
I’m only half here, if my girl’s not
Cruising, hearing barks from the back
Freestyling while she laughs at my raps
We’re a team, it’s a dream and I’m lovin' it
They’re only jealous cause they can’t fuck with it
It’s the simple things that make the world spin
From my dogs, to my job, to my girlfriend
Home is where the heart is so hip-hop is right here
Home is where the heart is so hip-hop is right here
Home is where the heart is so hip-hop is right here
Home is where the heart is so hip-hop is right here
Rolling down the road that I know is my home
It’s alright, it’s okay, yeah
Rolling down the road that I know is my home
It’s alright, it’s okay, yeah
