HOME lyrics by NF

Cryin' alone on the ride home drivin'

Just got the text you died

This doesn't feel real to me

Tryin', keep my mind off it

But I can't think about anything else

It's killing me slowly

What's life without you? I don't wanna know

"Goodbye," I'm not ready to say, so

I'll just act like you're here

Call your phone up, leave a voicemail

And then text ya to call me back later, it's fine

No need to rush, it's alright

I'll stop by tomorrow to say hi

We could play cards until midnight

This ain't the end, you're not goin'

You just found a new place to call

Home

Comes and goes, hits in waves, one day I'll be okay

Then the next, I'm a mess, walkin' down memory lane

Reminiscin', feels like it was just yesterday we were kids

Runnin' 'round in your yard, out on M-61

All the memories we made in that house growin' up

God, I miss it, would give anything just to be there again

What's life without you? I don't wanna know, yeah

"Goodbye," I'm not ready to say, so

I'll just act like you're here

Call your phone up, leave a voicemail

And then text ya to call me back later, it's fine

No need to rush, it's alright

I'll stop by tomorrow to say hi

We could play cards until midnight

This ain't the end, you're not goin'

You just found a new place to call home

Home

Just found a new place to call home

Home

I'll just act like you're here

Call your phone up, leave a voicemail

And then text ya to call me back later, it's fine

No need to rush, it's alright

NF — Biography

Early Life

NF, born Nathan John Feuerstein on March 30, 1991, in Gladwin, Michigan, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, and producer. He grew up in a difficult environment; his parents divorced early in his life, and he later lived with his father due to abuse in his mother’s home. In 2009, the same year he finished high school, his mother died from a drug overdose. This loss became one of the most defining and painful themes in his music, especially reflected in the song “How Could You Leave Us.”

Music became NF’s emotional outlet, and he began recording using a simple karaoke machine, writing intensely personal lyrics to cope with trauma, anger, and confusion.

Music Career

NF’s career began with independent releases, followed by momentum that placed him on the radar of major labels.

Key releases include:

Moments (2010, early independent album under his real name)

I’m Free (2012, independent EP)

NF (2014, self-titled EP and his breakthrough into the Christian and mainstream markets)

Mansion (2015, his first official studio album, introducing his cinematic sound and deeply introspective writing)

Therapy Session (2016, raw exploration of mental health, grief, and personal battles; earned critical acclaim)

Perception (2017, mainstream breakthrough; included the international hit “Let You Down” and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200)

The Search (2019, another number one album, continuing themes of anxiety, pressure, and the pursuit of purpose)

CLOUDS (The Mixtape) (2021, a shorter project showing creative flexibility)

HOPE (2023, an album focused on healing, growth, maturity, and confronting his past)

Musical Style and Themes

NF is known for his cinematic, orchestral production style, sharp and rapid-fire rapping, and intensely honest lyrics. His themes commonly include:

Mental health, anxiety, depression

Childhood trauma and emotional pain

Fame, pressure, and internal struggle

Personal growth and healing

Identity, faith, and introspection

Although he began his career under a Christian label, NF does not label himself a “Christian rapper.” He describes himself simply as an artist who writes about life, aiming for emotional truth rather than fitting into a genre box.

What Makes NF Stand Out

NF is respected for the authenticity and emotional depth of his music. He avoids explicit content and focuses heavily on storytelling. His vulnerability, combined with cinematic production and powerful delivery, has earned him a global fanbase across both mainstream and faith-adjacent audiences.
