Happy Home (Matoma Remix)

Mama called about the paper
Turns out they wrote about me
Now my broken heart's the only
Thing that's broke about me
So many people should have
Seen what we got going on
I only wanna put my heart
And my life in songs
Writing about the pain
I felt with my daddy gone
About the emptiness
I felt when I sat alone
About the happiness
I feel when I sing it loud
He should have heard the noise
We made with the happy crowd
Did my grandaddy know
He taught me what a poem was
How you can use a sentence
Or just a simple pause
What will I say when my kids
Ask me who my daddy was
I thought about it for a
While and I'm at a loss
Knowing that I'm gonna live
My whole life without him
I found out a lot of things
I never knew about him
All I know is that
I'll never really be alone
'Cause we gotta lot of love
And a happy home
'Cause we gotta lot of love
And a happy home
Magazines are writing stuff but
I don't ever read them
Some of the folks I used to know
Would see and start believing
That I would pass them by on
Streets and never reach to greet them
I still remember folks even
Though I rarely meet them
Don't you know I miss the
Times when we used to hang
Before twenty deep depended on a single man
Before a single heart was
Broken by a single blow
Before all our careers
Depended on a single show
I grew up with a lot of
Love in a happy home
Now I got a lot of cash and
I'm on a road
I realize privacy's becoming difficult
It's all right now but
What about when I'm old
I know my good friends now they'll last
The same ones that stood by
Me when my daddy past
All I know is that we'll
Never really be alone
'Cause we got a lot of
Love and a happy home
'Cause we gotta lot of love
And a happy home
'Cause we gotta lot of love
And a happy home
I write a lot of songs will
Anybody ever read them
You hear them on the radio
But will you really read them
Why do we have our idols and
Why do we wanna be them
After we see them on TV
We really wanna meet them
Don't you think they miss the time
When they used to hang
Before a fan base depended on a single man
Before a single heart was
Broken by a single show
Who's gonna stand who's gonna fall
I really wanna know
I grew up with a lot of
Love in a happy home
My daddy use to play me vinyl
But now daddy's gone
I used to practice with
My mommy on the piano
I still get nervous every time
I know she's at a show
Now my family comes first before everyone
I had the perfect dad
I wanna be the perfect son
Though I really feel sometimes
I am on my own
I know I got a lot of love
And a happy home
'Cause we gotta lot of love
And a happy home
'Cause we gotta lot of love
And a happy home
