Daddy’s DNA (American Idol Version)

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Brandon Lake & Breanna Nix] 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 [Chorus: Brandon Lake & Breanna Nix] 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 [Verse 2: Brandon Lake & Breanna Nix] 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 [Chorus: Brandon Lake, Breanna Nix, Both] 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 [Outro: Brandon Lake, Breanna Nix, Both] 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!
