Help Default screen after unlocking

[Android Question]

I'm sure I'm going to get blasted for this question. I have no idea where to look or phrase the question.

I have a Nexus 5 running what I think is the latest OS, I'm a newbie. When I unlock the phone, it defaults to my contacts. Is there a way to change that to default to my home screen?
Thanks
Warren

Hi

Have you tried swiping straight up from the bottom instead of from left to right? Different swipes do different things in Lollipop
