[Verse 1]
Don't know if I'll be ready to lose someone when I bring you home
Someone who loved me before I was even three years old
Wanted to wait until my grandma died
'Cause I didn't wanna add to the pain
I know the timing won't ever be right
But I'm still afraid to say your name

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not done learning how to be proud of who I am
And where I come from, they don't take the time to understand
I would rather hide than let them know
It's easier for me to be alone
I'm not ready to lose someone when I bring you home

[Verse 2]
Was it selfish to lead you on when I still don't know myself?
'Cause it's too easy to hold my tongue and put you through hell
Wanted to wait until my parents were older
So I could give them the son I thought they wanted
But all I gave them was someone they'll never know

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not done learning how to be proud of who I am
And where I come from, they don't take the time to understand
I would rather hide than let them know
It's easier for me to be alone
I'm not ready to lose someone when I bring you home
Bring you home
[Chorus]
I'm not done learning how to be proud of who I am
And where I come from, they don't take the time to understand
I would rather hide than let them know
It's easier for me to be alone
I'm not ready to lose someone when I bring you home
