About This Song


Better Than I Found It” came from something my dad always said growing up, take care of what ain’t yours, and leave it better than you found it. It stuck with me in the little things first, gates, trucks, borrowed tools, but over time it became bigger than that. It turned into how you treat people, relationships, and life itself. This song is really just that lesson, passed down, lived out, and finally put into words.

A lot of us were taught this! It resonates. It would be great to share it in song too.
I like that it’s a lesson song. It’s different than what we normally hear. Very good.
I especially like the doorway line.
