DEALING WITH ADDICTION |
Addiction is not a soft issue to deal with.
There's so many changes to make,
So many new guidelines to follow and heal with,
So many old habits to shake.
Staying away from influencing places,
Finding new places to roam,
Seeking new hobbies and meeting new faces,
Making some changes at home.
Staying away from continuing users,
People promoting temptation;
Hanging out only with druggies and boozers,
who share this redeeming sensation.
Finding new playmates. People more caring.
Friends who will help me to grow.
Finding new playgrounds that aren't so despairing.
Changing the life that I know.
Changing my attitude. Changing my thinking.
Changing my outlook completely.
Changing to flying from hopelessly sinking.
Changing to build, not deplete me.
I've planted new roots. I am ready to grow.
My life needs a whole rearrangin'.
I gave it some thought - I am ready to go,
and do me some serious changin'.
