Lyrics:
Welcome home, Peter Pan, you’re a man
Thought you said that you can’t grow old
Isn’t it a luxury?

Rest in peace, Marsha P., Harvey Milk, Oscar Wilde
Sorry that you can’t grow old
Such a fucking tragedy

I suppose the yellow brick road
Is easier to navigate than it’s ever been before
I feel like the red finish line
Keeps getting pushed back every time I learn a little bit more

I thought that truth would set me free
But it was momentary

Na na na na
Na na na na
Na na na na
It was momentary

Welcome home, Icarus, blow a kiss
Thank god you wanted me more than the sun
It’s so romantic

I guess we could assimilate, play it safe, married, kids
But that’s not what we want
It’s just a habit

I suppose the yellow brick road
Is easier to navigate than it’s ever been before
I feel like the red finish line
Keeps getting pushed back every time I learn a little bit more

I thought that love would set me free
But it was momentary

Na na na na
Na na na na
Na na na na
It was momentary
Na na na na
Na na na na
Na na na na
It was momentary

I thought that love would set me free
Set me free
But it was momentary
I thought that love would set me free
Set me free
But it was momentary

Welcome home, I miss you, I love you
Wonder if they’re playing Elvis in heaven

I thought that peace would set me free
But it was momentary

You know what’s not momentary? The career Jake Wesley is going to have. This music is beautiful and touching in ways I haven’t experienced. It just feels like a soul cleanse. Thank you for giving us this outstanding music.

[meghanpickwell]

genuinely so excited to have stumbled onto jake on tiktok. I feel like we're here just at the cusp of him shooting into stardom, and someday we're going to watch him perform at the Grammys and accept enormous acclaim and recognition. This is the sort of song that becomes an anthem and is borderline profound in how touching it is. can't wait to see where you go from here!

[Mgfaulkner]

You make church music for us beautiful lost boys.

[Alyssa-cvii]

Young Elton John. My 3 year old son loves you. Your music speaks to his little soul.

[kitkatstrats]

Why is this not at a billion views yet? This is the best song of this decade.

[HARTHEFOX]

I’ve watched this at least 5 times today and I don’t know if I’m strong enough to stop.

[DaleFrewaldt]

It's been a really long time since a song had a strong enough reaction on me that I sat crying over it. Thank you. It was just the kind of emotional release I've needed to move on.

[viceylenore]

His soul speaks to us in a way only a true artist can put on display for the rest of us to glimpse. #RIP #CAK

[MyRingFilms]

OH. MY GOD. I'm back. Second comment I've ever made on a youtube video. When I tell you my jaw (And roommate's jaws) were on the floor the entire time. Absolutely phenomenal.

[sofischnoke]

Im not sure what it is but I listened to one song. And now im hooked. Ive never heard music this real. IM OBSESSED

[wayplebney]

Jake, just keep touring. It will be awesome when the world wakes up.

[Lokassenna]

this is absolutely an anthem for our people. thank you for such a beautiful song

Found him by accident . Live in Scotland and to me a fantastic cross of Lewis capaldi and Sam Smith when he was simply a gay white singer. Can't believe he hasn't broke through. All we can do is share his videos with family and friends. The more people who hear his music the better . Love to all
