Brandon Lake Daddy's DNA (American Idol Version)

AlphabetLyrics.com

I thought the world had something special I was missing
My daddy told me not to chase it, didn't listen
I fell downhill a mile a minute
Before I knew it, I was livin'
In a pig sty a long, long way from home.

I went runnin' like a rebel
Racked up debts I couldn't pay
I went dancin' with the devil
Oh, with one foot in the grave
How the heaven did I get here?
I went and threw it all away
All I've given you was trouble
All you've given me was grace
Yeah...

So when I sobered up and came back to my senses
I was too far gone to make up all the distance
I gambled all that I'd been given
I was broke, alone and wishing
That I could turn around and go back home
And when I heard the sound of footsteps down the road
Ayy...

You came runnin' like a rebel
Paid off debts I couldn't pay
You went dancin' with the devil
Sent that liar to his grave
How the heaven did I get here?
Where every sin has been erased
All I've given you was trouble
All you've given me is grace
Ohh, oh, ohh-ohh...

And there was something in the marrow
Always coursin' through my veins
But buried deeper than the rubble
Is my daddy's dna
Breanna nix, y'all
Thank you jesus!
Yes...
