"Does evolution speak to where DNA came from?"

No. It doesn't. Darwin didn't even know about DNA, he postulated that there was a genetic inheritance and genetic diversity, and he was correct. When Darwin spoke about the origin of life (Abiogenesis, NOT evolution, evolution through natural selection assumes life, it doesn't explain it) he waxed mystical and spoke of the "breath of life" or some such.
