Come back home when you have some sense
You can throw your life away, just not at my expense
You’re not the son I raised
Save the son I disciplined and praised
For the one who disobeyed me
God, I fear the adult you’ll grow into
The way you’ve been carrying on (you’ll sink soon)
Something has gone horribly wrong (désastreux)
Had I not been so easy on you
There’d be time to rectify you
Come back home when you have some sense
You can throw your life away, just not at my expense
You’re not the son I raised
Save the son I disciplined and praised
For the one who disobeyed me
I guess I'm hard-headed
I'm dead set on ruining everything and everyone
A vision said I’d never grow
If I'm afraid to pledge flesh and bone
Had I not been so easy on you
There’d be time to rectify you
Come back home when you have some sense
You can throw your life away, just not at my expense
You’re not the son I raised
Save the son I disciplined and praised
For the one who disobeyed me
I can tell when you see me
That my eyes look just like mirrors
My hands seem soft like clay
But did you raise a tool or a hand?
Tell me, did you raise a man?
I have nightmares of being anchored down
Come back home when you have some sense
You can throw your life away, just not at my expense
You’re not the son I raised
Come back home when you have some sense
You can throw your life away, just not at my expense
You’re not the son I raised
Save the son I disciplined and praised
For the one who disobeyed
