Sober and Alive

[Verse] In the shadows of addiction, I lost my way, Empty promises and hollow words led me astray, Dark nights and lonely mornings, crying through the pain, Every toke was a whisper, every sip a chain. [Verse 2] Down to the bottom, where the light won’t reach, Amongst the broken hearts, I found no peace, Friends and family faded like ghosts into the haze, Life became a battlefield in a foggy daze. [Chorus] But I clawed my way back, hand over hand, Found redemption in the love of myself in the end, I'm sober and alive, no more washing away, Tomorrow's where my heart is, not yesterday. [Verse 3] Days of clarity, I've finally found, The sun breaking through as I stand my ground, Every new dawn is a promise that I’m keeping true, For the one in the mirror, and for loving you. [Verse 4] It’s a long road to recovery, miles to go, But every step I take, my roots begin to grow, In the soil of hopeful spring, where I now reside, Sharing stories of my loss, now with pride. [Chorus] 'Cause I clawed my way back, hand over hand, Found redemption in the love of myself in the end, I'm sober and alive, no more washing away, Tomorrow's where my heart is, not yesterday.
