I didn't lay the concrete on the ground it rests upon
I didn't build the flooring or the ceiling or the walls
I know how to roof houses, but I didn't roof this one
I've painted plenty walls, but these I've never touched
But I built a home
I built a home
I built a home
Sitting on the floor is my friend group's specialty
And fitting 15 people around a 30-inch TV
I wouldn't change those moments,
No not for anything
Cause after all these years they're the family that chose me
We built a home
We built a home
We built a home
At my lowest you pulled me from the ruins I had wrought
Excavate my heart
You laid the ground of rock
I told you straight up that I didn't want a God
But your cornerstone withstood what my resolve did not
You restore my soul
Anoint my head with oil
My cup overflows
Surely goodness, surely mercy where you go
I will dwell in the house of the Lord
You built a home
You built a home
You built a home
You built a home
You built a home
You built the home, so we build on
You built the home, so we build on
