I Am Coming Home
Spent my whole life trying to find the parts that were missing
What looked like direction was guessing
What I achieved was all that defined me
Never knowing what stood behind me
Breathe it in, breathe it in, night jasmine calls the summer toward us
I have been taken care of without invitation
What I owe can never be repaid to the people of this land
Rivers, oceans, and big sky above us
And so I am going home
I am going home
I am going home
I am going home
(Toitu)
(Toitu)
Remember, remember who I am, kaitiaki
That I come, that I come through a line of Wāhine Toa
Toitu te whenua, toitu te tangata
Toitu te whenua
I am coming home
I am coming home
I am coming home
I am coming home
Kei te hoki au ki te kāinga
Kei te hoki au ki te kāinga
Kei te hoki au ki te kāinga
Kei te hoki au ki te kāinga
What looked like direction was guessing
What I achieved was all that defined me
Never knowing what stood behind me
Breathe it in, breathe it in, night jasmine calls the summer toward us
I have been taken care of without invitation
What I owe can never be repaid to the people of this land
Rivers, oceans, and big sky above us
And so I am going home
I am going home
I am going home
I am going home
(Toitu)
(Toitu)
Remember, remember who I am, kaitiaki
That I come, that I come through a line of Wāhine Toa
Toitu te whenua, toitu te tangata
Toitu te whenua
I am coming home
I am coming home
I am coming home
I am coming home
Kei te hoki au ki te kāinga
Kei te hoki au ki te kāinga
Kei te hoki au ki te kāinga
Kei te hoki au ki te kāinga
