Verse 1: The singer realizes that someone at home has been right all these years about something.
Verse 2: Aspiring stars (musical artists, in particular) eventually fall, and the singer needs to return home before it's too late and he is not welcomed there any more.
Verse 3: The singer is afraid of how things at home may have changed, since he has been gone so long.
Verse 4: The singer realizes that all he truly wanted was his family/home and not being a famous/wealthy/etc. superstar.
The rest of the song is fairly self-explanatory, I think. In general, I think the song says that we shouldn't take our homes/families for granted, because they will be there for us in the future when other things aren't:
"We come to find
What we take for granted
Keeps us alive in the end
So don't let time
Leave you empty handed.
Reach out tonight and make amends"
