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 living
In a pigsty, a long, long way from home
I went running like a rebel
Racked up debts I couldn’t pay
I went dancing with the devil
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 I wish I didn’t
After all the risky business
Could I ever be forgiven?
I’m afraid to even ask to come back home
I went running like a rebel
Racked up debts I couldn’t pay
I went dancing with the devil
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
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
You came running like a rebel
Payed off debts I couldn’t pay
You went dancing with the devil
Sent that liar to his grave
How the heaven did I get here?
For every sin has been erased
All I’ve given You was trouble
All You’ve given me was grace
There was something in the marrow
Always coursing through my veins
Buried deeper than the rubble
Is my Daddy’s DNA
My daddy told me not to chase it, didn’t listen
Fell downhill a mile a minute
Before I knew it I was living
In a pigsty, a long, long way from home
I went running like a rebel
Racked up debts I couldn’t pay
I went dancing with the devil
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 I wish I didn’t
After all the risky business
Could I ever be forgiven?
I’m afraid to even ask to come back home
I went running like a rebel
Racked up debts I couldn’t pay
I went dancing with the devil
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
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
You came running like a rebel
Payed off debts I couldn’t pay
You went dancing with the devil
Sent that liar to his grave
How the heaven did I get here?
For every sin has been erased
All I’ve given You was trouble
All You’ve given me was grace
There was something in the marrow
Always coursing through my veins
Buried deeper than the rubble
Is my Daddy’s DNA
