Got clean but they won't let you forget
Said sorry and changed behavior
Faded away disappeared
Like I can't do anything
Moving on with life with no regret
Accused not talking this verbal abuse
Sober living meant giving up on an old life
Stopped partying and working hard
Probably get fired before getting a promotion
Did so much good but the bad shadows
Feel like this is a life sentence
Can't escape all the hate
From those who remain the same
Remind me I made mistakes
Bring up old pain bad meomeries remain
Staying positive in a room full of haters
Working hard to change my struggle
From poor to getting by
Want to make it happen
Scared it hasn't happened yet
The world goes slow feel the anxiety grow
One day at a time take it slow
Tired of walking away following the rules
Too many cheaters rewarded for bad deeds
Mind my mouth showing respect
Thoughts are compressed inside
Ready to explode come out with a wrath
