Prompt / Lyrics
**"I Would Like to Come Home"** *(A Folk-Pop Ballad)* **[Verse 1]** Hi, birth givers and co, I’m at this place you made me go. The mountains rise, the rivers flow, But I am burning hot, yet it's freezing in the cold. **[Verse 2]** Last night, the heat was burning bright, Sweat and dust in candlelight. Worked all day ‘til my hands turned red, Laid in bed with thoughts of home instead. **[Pre-Chorus]** Oh, I came to help, to give, to grow, to build But I did not sign up for this, you know... **[Chorus]** I almost got attacked by bugs in the shower, A leech, a centipede, a spider with power. Five inches long, those legs, they crept, Staring into my soul as I barely slept. And I would like to come home... Please! I want to come home... **[Verse 3]** We wake at dawn, we build, we fight, With calloused hands, we work till dusk. I mix the clay, I lift, I sweat, But the bugs here make me second-guess. **[Pre-Chorus]** Oh, I came to help, to give, to grow, But I did not sign up for this, you know... **[Verse 4]** But oh, the food, it warms my soul, Spiced and rich in a silver bowl. The dal bhat here, the best I’ve known, Steaming rice and flavors grown. **[Pre-Chorus]** Oh, I came to help, to give, to grow, But maybe there’s more to this, you know… **[Chorus]** I almost got attacked by bugs in the shower, A leech, a centipede, a spider with power. Five inches long, those legs, they crept, Staring into my soul as I barely slept. And I want to come home... I would like to come home... **[Bridge]** But then I see them smile, Their laughter echoes miles. They have so little but give so much, Their hands, their hearts, their gentle touch. And maybe... just maybe... I can stay a little while. **[Outro]** So hi, birth givers and co, I’m at this place you made me go. It’s cold, it’s hard, but now I see— This place is changing me. [Intro]
