Celebrating Sobriety

lyrics

Sober Life

Oh yea> I’m feeling like a Rock Star right about now baby

Let me get right down to it, I’m a show and prove
Flow like Young MC, and Bust a Move
Don’t even act like you don’t know me, cause I know you do
And don’t even try to judge me till, you’ve walked in my shoes

Yea I had a distorted views, I got from my father
I have always worked hard, I just partied even harder
Moms taught me to pray to God, but I ain’t ever really bothered
I just blazed purple rain and praised the almighty dollar

Lived at the bottom of bottles, from Night Train to vodkas
If I got paid today, I’d be broke by tomorrow
Sink or swim, I would drown all my sorrows
Live fast die hard, yea that was my motto

Till I hit rock bottom, and my soul was crushed
Stuck in Sodom and Gomorra high on Angel Dust
They labeled me unstable and dangerous
Man the game of life is rough, but I never gave up

Hook 2x’s
Now I’m living that sober life
Yea celebrating that sober life
This is that sober life
Sober life, loving sober life

I had had enough, yea I needed a change
I had to break free from them shackles and chains
I had to face all my fears, and embrace my pains
I had nothing to lose, but everything to gain

So the first I changed, was people places and things
I took inventory, and then I made amends
I worked the 12 steps, like a brand new dance
Gave God all the glory, now I’m living like a King

Went from a living nightmare, to living out my dreams
From headed up the river, to downloads and streams
Now I see everything, in a whole different light
Everyday and every night, I get high on life

No I don’t need to pop bottles, and I don’t need a pipe
Don’t need a ghost writer, cause the bars is tight
Life drives a hard bargain, but I have paid the price
All praise due to Allah, I finally got this shit right
