You are free now so what will you do Go back home and be the man they all knew Or the changed person that I see A real man who wants to stay free You have been forced to learn a lesson with time A sentence for a no evidence crime You can be sad and even downright mad But you can’t hold onto the pain of the time you could have had If you let pain hold you back from the person you have become You will walk into the future only feeling numb You will not feel the joy that you deserve Only feeling the time that you had to serve I know Let it go is easy to say Especially for the hard price that you had to pay I am here to lend an ear You always have my support in the coming years A father, a friend, and someone they can lean on This is the man that must come home

Welcome Home
You are free now so what will you do Go back home and be the man they all knew Or the changed person that I see A real man who wants to stay free You have been forced to learn a lesson with time A sentence for a no evidence crime You can be sad and even downright mad But you can’t hold onto the pain of the time you could have had If you let pain hold you back from the person you have become You will walk into the future only feeling numb You will not feel the joy that you deserve Only feeling the time that you had to serve I know Let it go is easy to say Especially for the hard price that you had to pay I am here to lend an ear You always have my support in the coming years A father, a friend, and someone they can lean on This is the man that must come home
