Daddy’s DNA Lyrics – Brandon Lake

[Verse 1]

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 living

In a pig sty a long, long way from home

[Chorus]

I went running like a rebel

Racked up debts I couldn’t pay

I went dancing 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

[Verse 2]

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 running like a rebel

Racked up debts I couldn’t pay

I went dancing 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

Mmmm

Given me is grace

Mmmm

[Verse 3]

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 running like a rebel

Paid 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?

Where every sin has been erased

All I’ve given You was trouble

All You’ve given me is grace

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm

[Outro]

There was something in the marrow

Always coursing through my veins

But buried deeper than the rubble

Is my Daddy’s DNA
