Luke Wynn - Thank You Lyrics

Mama look how far we have come
I remember shopping at savers
For a button up
No name brand shoes
I kept them clean though
Had the whole school fooled
Luke don't wear the same thing bro

I had one pair a jeans
Knew how to use a iron
Shared everything with my brothers
Nothing was really mine
Getting choked up lookin' back
As i press rewind
Then looking to the future in awe
Like this is so divine

Nobody thought that i would make it
My own family didn't know my name
I was slept on like a mattress

An insignificant piece of society
Now my music's all around world
Transcending like its the odyssey

Preparing rhymes
Privately in my room
Quietly too
I'm in the future writing for food
Creating for thousands of people
Who will buy on iTunes
Jesus its cause of you
I'm just amazed that my dreams have come true

Life has not been a fairytale
I'd be lying if i told you it was easy
Ain't made it but right now I'm doing very well
I'm excited for what life is about to bring me
Thank you, Thank you lord

I remember my first beat
Dad it was bred for you
My own take on let it go
Had something better for you
But the cassette tape broke
Before i shared it for you
My perspective changed
Felt that God didn't intend it for you

I'm so thankful for my father
All his wisdom kept me clean
Stayed out of drama
The studio session, the mix process
Stayed in my mental
Hated me rapping
But you are why I held my pencil

You said never to quit
You're musically inclined
No sports
So drums is where i spent my time
Preached that practice
Would make me greater than the other guys
And keep Christ central is key
And you wont be a wreck in life

Taught me not crying over little things
In the worse way
Beating me in madden, then gloating
I was in first grade
But that taught me, be better at winning
Learn from your mistakes
I'm the man i am cause my father
So now i say thanks

Life has not been a fairytale
I'd be lying if i told you it was easy
Ain't made it but right now I'm doing very well
I'm excited for what life is about to bring me
Thank you, Thank you lord
