VERSE(1)

I'm looking through a box my dad just sent me
Filled with hand me downs and things he once wore
He passed along his blessings and his curses
But mainly scraps and nothing more ... no nothing more
And I pray to God his shoes will never fit me
And I pray this isn't my inheritance
His dirty t-shirts and all his girlfriend's mini skirts
Are the things I now resent ... Lord I resent

Chorus

Old man didn't gimme much more than second hand clothing
But Jesus wants more for me than second hand clothing, second hand clothing

VERSE(2)

I've spent my lifetime dancing with his demons
They're constantly comparing him with me
They tell their lies as they look into my eyes and say
The apple doesn't fall far from it's tree ... and I pray oh Lord not me

(Chorus)

VERSE(3)

So I put away this box that I was given
Cause nothing in it meant that much to me
I have outgrown these hand me downs and now I know
That God gives me everything I need ... everything I need now

(Chorus)
