That’s 3 plus years, I was so proud of
And I threw ‘em all away for 2 Styrofoam cups
The irony, everyone will think that he lied to me
Made my sobriety so public, there’s no fuckin’ privacy
If I don’t talk about it then I carry it daily
Is there a A? 10-0-A, but now it’s been changed in every..
When they put me in some boxes that say
I never was, it’s the false prophet that never came
And well they think that everything that I written is all that fake
Oh well I’ll just take my slick to the grave
Uh, what the fuck are my parents gonna say?
The success that got his life together and changed him
And you know what pain looks like
When you tell your dad to relax then look him directly into his face
The seep on your shoulder’s the seemingly heavy weight
I’ve been seeing tears like this on my girl
In a while the trust that I once built ’s been betrayed
But I’d rather live telling the truth than be judged for my mistakes
The falsely held gun, yea them procks love them prays
I guess I gotta get this on the page
Feeling sick and helpless, lost the compass where self is
I know what I gotta do and I can’t help it
One day at a time is what they tell us
Now I gotta find a way to tell them
God help ‘em
One day at a time is what they tell us
Now I gotta find a way to tell them
We fell so hard
Now we gotta get back what we lost.. lost..
I felt you’d go
But you were with me all along.. along..
And every kid that came up to me
And said I was the music they listened to when they first got clean
Now look at me, a couple days sober
I’m fighting demons
Back of that meeting on the east side
Shaking swicking, hope that they don’t see it
Hope that no one is looking
That no one recognizes that failure under that hoodie
Was posted in the back with my hands crossed shooken
If they call on me I’m passing, if they talk to me I’m looking out that door
But before I can make it somebody stops me and says are you Macklemore?
Maybe this isn’t the place or time
I just wanted to say that if there wasn’t for other side I wouldn’t have made it
I just look down at the ground and say thank you
She tells me she has 9 months and that she’s so grateful
Tears in her eyes, looking like she’s gonna cry.. fuck!
I barely got 48 hours, treat ‘er like I’m some wise monk
I wanna tell her I relapsed but I can’t
I just shake her hand and tell her congrats
Get back to my car and I think I’m tripping yea
Cuz gyro other side, that pen was in my hand
I’m just a flawed man, man I fucked up up
Like so many others I just never thought I would
I never thought I would, didn’t pick up the book
Doin’ it by myself, didn’t turn out that good
If I can be an example of getting sober
Then I can be an example of starting over
If I can be an example of getting sober
Then I can be an example of starting over
We fell so hard
Now we gotta get back what we lost.. lost..
I felt you’d go
But you were with me all along.. along..
We fell so hard
Now we gotta get back what we lost.. lost..
