"Daddy's DNA" lyrics - BRANDON LAKE

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

[Chorus:]
I went runnin' like a rebel
Racked up debts I couldn't pay
I went dancin' with the devil
With one foot in the grave
How the Heaven did I get here?
Went and threw it all away
All I've given You was trouble
All You've given me was grace

And the freedom I was chasing felt like prison
Lord, I've done so many things, wish I didn't
And after all the risky business, could I ever be forgiven?
I'm afraid to even ask to come back home

[Chorus:]
'Cause I went runnin' like a rebel
Racked up debts I couldn't pay
I went dancin' with the devil
With one foot in the grave
How the Heaven did I get here?
Went and threw it all away
All I've given You was trouble
All You've given me is grace
Mm
Given me is grace
Mm

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
When I heard the sound of footsteps down the road

[Chorus:]
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
Mm, mm, mm

[Outro:]
There was something in the marrow
Always coursin' through my veins
But buried deeper than the rubble
Is my Daddy's DNA
