Man I Am Today

Its a kiss from Katie on the swing set

When I was in 3rd grade

Teacher making me sit from recess

When I would mis-behave

Its a long haul to see my grandma

During the holidays

I can tell my momma loved Jesus

By the way she said grace

Its a spring break

For me and my buddies that had to go our own way

Sunday, that I got saved

Its a class ring, that we never bought cause we thought we'd win state

But it didn't turn out that way

I can't complain, Its how it became

The man I am today

Its a fast lane headed down the interstate, a long way from home

Loaded down with a truck full of memories

The only thing I've ever owned

Its a late night, bar fights coming in

Getting pizza at 3 am

Falling in and out of love with my girlfriend

Asking God to forgive my sins again

And again

Its the four years, everybody says your supposed to find yourself and they were the best

There, s the lonely tears that I cried that night when I saw my dad die

But i know hes in a better place

So I can't complain, its how I became

The man I am today

Cause the good Lord always seems to have a funny way

Of making you look back on your life and say

Its the white dress, walking down the isle the day I said I do

Watching our boy take his first breath

Its the true love, that made it through the years and started on a swing set, I know that I am truly blessed

So I can't complain, Wouldn't change a thing, its how I became

The man I am today. The man I am today

Its a kiss from Katie on the swing set, when I was in 3rd grade
