Returning home, making amends, having remorse and admitting your mistakes. Inspired by the story of the Prodigal Son.
lyrics
Like the Prodigal Son man I’m comin home
Full of remorse and with busted bones
Cause I’ve been run out of every town
Kicked when I was up stabbed while down
But I ain’t got no time to live in the past
My rear view mirror is just broken glass
And I will run to my Father
And tell him how nice it is just to hear him laugh
And I will hold on to my Mother
And tell her how sorry I am for the riff and the raff
I wasted all my time chasin a golden calf
