Caterpillar To A Butterfly

  I Never thought I would be a husband
Never thought I would be a dad
Never thought life had a purpose, never
Saw anything good from a life so sad

But through it all some how I survived
And it’s something I’ll never understand
But there’s always been a light from above
And I guess I don’t need to know the plan

Never saw myself as more than worthless
For it was pounded in my brain
Never had a moment to be proud
Never wanted to carry on my fathers name

But as we fast forward to now
I can see all the times Jesus carried me
So I gave him my heart
And from the darkness I am free

I have a beautiful wife and daughter too
You know that life that wasn’t for me
But some how here I am
And I feel it was meant to be

When I think about it you know, it most
Always brings tears of joy to my eye
Because I got to see my baby girl
Transform from a Caterpillar to a Butterfly
