Verse 1
You were there when my daddy died
I didn’t want to believe but I tried
Tough prayers in the dead of night
I said I wanted to live but I lied
Fourteen standing at his grave
I didn’t know what it meant to be safe
Fell apart when I heard You say
I love you son, let Me take all your pain
Pre-Chorus
Inside, outside
Waking up just to never die
Took a minute but I realized
You’d given me a better life
Chorus
22 steps, out of debt
22 steps (I’ll never forget)
22 steps, straight ahead
22 steps (still catching my breath)
Verse 2
22 steps from the grave to God
I got in and we drove to his mom’s
Late tears running down my arms
Ready to live and believe he was gone
Pre-Chorus
Inside, outside
Waking up just to never die
Took a minute but I realized
You’d given me a better life
Chorus
22 steps, out of debt
22 steps (I’ll never forget)
22 steps, straight ahead
22 steps (still catching my breath)
(whispered words)
Chorus
22 steps, out of debt
22 steps (I’ll never forget)
22 steps, straight ahead
22 steps (still catching my breath)
22 steps
I’ll never forget
22 steps
