[verse 1]
Hey guys, don't feel guilty,
It was just my time to go.
I can see you're all feeling sad,
I can see the tears still flowing
My life's journey ended prematurely
You tried your best to change me
Even when I screamed “I fucking hate me”
You held me and told you love me
I know I caused you sadness,
I know caused you pain,
But Im imprisoned by my demons,
They wouldn't set me free again.
I can feel it all swim through my veins
Feel my lungs fill up with smoke
They took away my freedom,
It took away my choice,
And when they got their hooks in,
Oh you’ll hear it in my voice.
There were times I tried to fight them,
There was a time I nearly won,
But they came back and overpowered me,
I had nowhere left to run.
[chorus]
I’m sorry momma
I’m sorry dad
I’m sorry to my babies
To all my friends have a drink
Take a toke for me
And to my love I’m sorry
[verse 2]
I haven't really left you guys,
I am closer than you know,
I will be the whisper in the wind,
I will be everywhere you go.
One day you will all forgive me
One day you will understand
And when your time on earth is done
I will be waiting to take your hand.
This shit is tough
I've fought my emotions,
I've held them deep inside.
I didn't want to face what for so long
I tried to hide.
I've been lost within the dark
For so long I haven’t seen the light.
Holding on to the memory
of a time when things were right.
I've looked upon your face
and I see the sadness in your eyes.
My battle with addiction
I can no longer disguise.
[chorus]
I’m sorry momma
I’m sorry dad
I’m sorry to my babies
To all my friends have a drink
Take a toke for me
And to my love I’m sorry
[verse 3]
I've prayed to find the answers
of what I myself must do.
And I've prayed for the strength to fight
Even through the hell I go through.
I've held on for so long,
I watch myself die through the eyes
Of my empty carcass shell
No one can fight this for me
but lords knows how I've tried.
I bet it’s so hard to watch the ones you love
slowly slip away.
Its why I block it out
Numb away the pain
and hold on to yesterday.
[chorus]
I’m sorry momma
I’m sorry dad
I’m sorry to my babies
To all my friends have a drink
Take a toke for me
And to my love I’m sorry
[verse 4]
I don't have all the answers
or the power to save my soul.
Im broken, lost and lonely,
I know now that drugs will never make you whole.
This fight is mine and mine alone
no matter what you do,
They can’t save you.
The only one who can
is you.
[chorus]
I’m sorry momma
I’m sorry dad
I’m sorry to my babies
To all my friends have a drink
Take a toke for me
And to my love I’m sorry
