This song is about a 17 year old when he was young his parent were divorced, and he was living with his mother. His father comes over all high on drugs and his mom tells him to not let him in so the boy takes his apartment and while he's past out he tells him he loves him and he's leaving and then goes back to his mothers house and leaves a note saying that he can't stay there anymore because if he does its gonna end up breaking him so he leaves.
He ends up making a lot of wrong decisions in his life but in the end he find a girl and they get married and have a son. His sister calls him one day with a pain in her voice, their mother is dead. He goes to his mothers funeral and his dad is there sober saying that Jesus has taken away his sins and he hopes that someday he will forgive him for the past. When the "boy" gets back to Texas he calls his dad and pretty much forgives him by telling him that his grandson has his eyes and they have an extra room for him to live with them.
