I've gotta stop letting my vices get the best of me
And let the bleeding do its healing in time naturally
Self deprecating medicating won't change anything
So let's skip town and reassess our core priorities
I have to stop letting my fears become anxiety
And find more solace in the quiet and sobriety
Put a stop to the past haunts' relentless grip on me
I've gotta stop letting my vices get the best of me
Break my bank
Move to New York State
This kind of change should shift the weight
Rolling over in the sheets and pages
I think I found my motivation
Stay here and sweat the bed forever
Or get on my feet and wander
To something new, something scary and progressive
Head walking on the things I've made a mess of
My toes tipped over the edge of impressive
Cliffs I never saw myself falling over
So breathe deep cause it's dive or stay dry
And you're young but you only have so much time
I'm on the edge of my seat, shedding these shackles off me
(I've gotta stop letting my vices get the best of me)
There is no later or wait
Only so many clean slates
(I've gotta stop letting my vices get the best of me)
I'll own mistaken beliefs
Take responsibility
(I've gotta stop letting my vices get the best of me)
But I can't settle in it
Let it die or reinvent
I'm on the edge of my seat
Shedding these shackles off me
