lyrics

O.J.'S SONG - Jordan Rand

Mother I am coming

Home to you
Let this L.A. Freeway

Take me to

Where I was a young boy

Before this all began.
I was once a hero

Made you proud

On a box of cereal
Say it loud
Everybody loved me

The all American

MOTHER I AM COMING HOME TO YOU

CAN'T YOU HEAR ME CALLING OUT TO YOU

MUST BE INTERFERENCE, CAN'T GET THROUGH
MOTHER I AM COMING
HOME TO YOU
HOME TO YOU.
Life is just a circus
Look around.
Cheers of celebration

Fill the crowd.
Can't they see it's over
Nothing to cheer about?

There was only one love
In my life.

Now that she is gone I
Have no life.
Might as well move on now

Time for my exit route.

MOTHER I AM COMING HOME TO YOU

CAN'T YOU HEAR ME CALLING OUT TO YOU
WHAT ELSE IS THERE LEFT FOR ME TO DO?

MOTHER I AM COMING
HOME TO YOU

HOME TO YOU.
Rolling road-block follows
And ahead

Helicopters swarming

Overhead.
Overpasses teaming

As I go passing by.

All attend my moves with

Bated breath,

Waiting to hear news

About my death.

Tell me why I bother.
Tell me why do I try?
MOTHER I AM COMING HOME TO YOU
YOU KNOW I AM GUILTY, YES IT'S TRUE.

GIVE ME ABSOLUTION. BEAR ME THROUGH.
MOTHER I AM COMING

HOME TO YOU

HOME TO YOU.
MOTHER I AM COMING HOME TO YOU

MOTHER I AM COMING HOME TO YOU
MOTHER I AM COMING HOME TO YOU
