Son of a Sinner

Intro

(Yeah) Son of a sinner

(Oh yeah) Walkin' that line

Verse

Daddy was a rambler, always chasin' highs

Left us in the dust when the bottle called his name

Mama prayed for mercy, tears in her bible lines

I grew up swingin' fists, dodgin' all the blame

Tattoos on my knuckles from the fights I couldn't win

Needle in my veins, thinkin' that'd make me whole

Friends turned to ghosts, every promise paper-thin

Runnin' from the mirror, scared of my own soul

Chorus

I'm a son of a sinner, son of a sinner

Yeah the sin is the father, so I wear these scars

I'm a son of a sinner, tryin' to be better

Prayin' for forgiveness underneath these stars

Son of a sinner (son of a sinner)

Yeah, I'm still runnin' (still runnin')

Son of a sinner, but I'm comin' home

Verse

Now the road's gettin' longer, rearview full of wrecks

Wife holdin' my hand through the storms we can't outrun

Kids look up to me, wonderin' what's next

Breakin' all these chains before the damage is done

No more hidin' shadows, facin' what I am

Devil on my shoulder, but the light's pullin' stronger

One step at a time, yeah, I got a better plan

Turnin' all this pain into somethin' that lasts longer

Chorus

I'm a son of a sinner, son of a sinner

Yeah the sin is the father, so I wear these scars

I'm a son of a sinner, tryin' to be better

Prayin' for forgiveness underneath these stars

Son of a sinner (son of a sinner)

Yeah, I'm still runnin' (still runnin')

Son of a sinner, but I'm comin' home

Bridge

(Oh-oh) Ain't no perfect story, just a man on his knees

Beggin' for that grace, yeah, set my spirit free

No more runnin' circles, time to claim my peace

From the son of a sinner to the man I was meant to be

Chorus

I'm a son of a sinner, son of a sinner

Yeah the sin is the father, so I wear these scars

I'm a son of a sinner, tryin' to be better

Prayin' for forgiveness underneath these stars

Son of a sinner (son of a sinner)

Yeah, I'm still runnin' (still runnin')

Son of a sinner, but I'm comin' home

(Comin' home, yeah) Son of a sinner

Outro

Son of a sinner (yeah)

Comin' home
