My Inheritance (feat. Corey Kent)

I knew he loved his whiskey
I knew he loved his wine
But I was never quite sure if he loved me
And I always wondered, why?
I didn't want his money
'Cause Lord knows he didn't have much
This guitar he gave me was his, "I believe in you, son"

I didn't get forgiveness for the smallest of things
But I got who he was and who I didn't wanna be
And God, I'm thankful for the beauty in the mess
I wouldn't be the man I am today, I guess
That's my inheritance

Ain't much of nothin'
That I didn't try
Looking for love in every wrong place didn't make it right
I hurt a lot of people
'Cause hurt people, hurt
And saying "sorry" when you ain't sorry, man it never works

I didn't get forgiveness for the smallest of things
But I got who he was and who I didn't wanna be
But God, I'm thankful for the beauty in the mess
I wouldn't be the man I am today, I guess
That's my inheritance

Yeah

I ran like hell to Jesus
I didn't know what else to do
He showed me His hands and He said, "Son, I did this for you"
"And you'll be a daddy like you never knew"
"'Cause I take broken things and make 'em new"

And I got forgiveness for the smallest of things
And I got who He was and who I wanted to be
And God, I'm thankful you saw beauty in this mess
You made me the man I am today, I guess
That's my inheritance
That's my inheritance
