Breaking The Chains

Woke up today my head in a vice

Tired of the fog been livin’ unwise

I threw my old life right out the door

Tired of the pain I'm craving for more

Shutting the bottle lifting my eyes

I see the truth ain't no more lies

Breaking the chains that held me down

Rise from the ashes

I'll wear my crown

Sober I stand the world in my hand

No longer sinking in shifting sand

I found the light inside my soul

On my own two feet I’m feeling whole

Friends turned their heads whispers behind

They can't see my spirit's undefined

Made a decision I'll never regret

Wrote my own story ain't finished yet

Climbing the stairs to clearer skies

Breathing the air new enterprise

Life ain't easy but I'm set free

The best of me is yet to be

Sober I stand the world in my hand

No longer sinking in shifting sand

I found the light inside my soul

On my own two feet I’m feeling whole
