me now
Lyrics
Verse 1
I seen the wreckage, I know what I came from
One bad turn, then the next, I was chained some
Crystal in my veins, I was playing with the fire
Every lie I told just kept dragging me lower
Lost in the loop, I was trading my future
For a quick little high and a life getting stupider
Now I see the cost in the mirror each morning
Same scars, same page, but the lesson was forming
I don't miss that blur, I don't miss that crawl
I was breaking my name just to feel ten feet tall
Now I move with a plan, now I move with a cause
Got my hand on the wheel, got my foot on the pause
Pre-Chorus
Yeah, I been through the dark
Still I learned what is real
I can take that pain
And let it seal my deal
One step, one breath
I choose what I build
I ain't going back
I'm standing still
Chorus
Nothing stops me now
I been through the fire
Nothing stops me now
I'm built from the trial
Clean and sober, I rise
Clean and sober, I rise
I chose my life
And I won't come down
Verse 2
Hard days come, I don't fold, I don't panic
I got tools in my mind, got a line through the damage
I can sit with the storm, I can breathe through the pressure
I can tell that old voice it don't get my attention
When the room gets cold and the doubt gets loud
I remember the truth that I learned in the crowd
Take the next right step, don't chase the old pain
Don't feed the old beast, don't go back in that chain
I got people I trust, I got work I can do
I got reasons to live and a future to move to
I can fail and return, I can stumble and stand
I can build me a life with these sober hands
Pre-Chorus
Yeah, I been through the dark
Still I learned what is real
I can take that pain
And let it seal my deal
One step, one breath
I choose what I build
I ain't going back
I'm standing still
Chorus
Nothing stops me now
I been through the fire
Nothing stops me now
I'm built from the trial
Clean and sober, I rise
Clean and sober, I rise
I chose my life
And I won't come down
Bridge
I ain't my past, I ain't that grave
I'm the man I meant to be today
Every scar taught me how to pray
Every loss taught me how to stay
When the night gets rough, I don't break
I reach for the truth, I make no mistake
I can live clean, I can live free
That's the life that was waiting for me
Final Chorus
Nothing stops me now
I been through the fire
Nothing stops me now
I'm built from the trial
Clean and sober, I rise
Clean and sober, I rise
I chose my life
And I won't come down
