DEALING WITH ADDICTION |
I know what you're thinking (I used to agree):
Addiction don't have any power over me.
I never gave thought to the harm I was doin',
How much of my life I would lose or would ruin.
I thought I could quit anytime that I chose,
So I'd slam down that booze - run those lines up my nose.
I thought is was fun - that I had full control,
While time after time it would take its harsh toll.
So I'd quit for a while but go back to my using.
Why wasn't I able to stop self-abusing?
I fin'ly sought treatment, to set myself free.
I learned my addiction was stronger than me.
So, please, listen to me, before it's too late.
If you think you've a problem, take action. Don't wait!
There's hope and there's healing. Just seek and you'll find it.
Make a vow to get clean and stand, firmly, behind it.
Don't underestimate your addiction's vast power,
Its focus - your life and your soul, to devour.
Get help if you need it. The first step's admitting,
that there is a problem and that you are quitting.
Make your decision, and make it today.
God's called you to act; it is time to obey.
The only regret you will, one day, admit,
Is the fact that it took you so darn long to quit.
