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
