Starting Over (Feat. Ben Bridw..) - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
One two now
Those 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 a date
08 10 08 but now
it's been changed in every
When they put me
in some boxes that say
That I never was
it's the false prophet
that never came
And will they think
that everything that
I written has all been fake
Oh well I'll just take my slip
to the grave
Uh what the fuck are
my parents gonna say
The success story that got
his life together and changed
And you know what pain looks like
When you tell your dad
you relapsed and
look him directly into his face
The seep on your shoulder's
the seemingly heavy weight
I haven't seen 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
Them falsely held up
give em props
loved and praised
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 tweakin
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 booking 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 it 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
treated 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
Cause God wrote Otherside
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
