[Madchild, Tom MacDonald, Nova Rockafeller - Sober lyrics]

What up, y'all? My name's Tom
Little while back was a alcoholic
Had a mental breakdown like a year ago
 came close to put me in a coffin
Damn, after the hooker I loved
After I did all the drugs
After I finally got fired for showing up late
To the job hella tired and drunk
After the Oxys I put up my nose with my
Boss on the oil rigs when I was young
After my ex cut her wrists, and the cops
Thought I stabbed her and beat me
Then put me in cuffs
After I totaled my car tryna
Run from the cops
With a kilo of coke in the trunk
After I drank till I rotted
My teeth out my head
Got infections in all of my gums
After I couldn't get hard
'cause the vodka and
Porno sedated me till I was numb
After I couldn't escape from
The basement I rented
And went to go live with my mom
After I cheated on people I needed and lied
Tryna hide from the guy that I was
Then I got sober, the madness was over, now
I am proud of the man I've become, yeah

I'm finally someone that I know again
I started climbing out the hole I'm in
Fighting demons and I know I'll win
It's time for me to mend these broken wings

Life has been hard, I know it gets better
This is a war that I'll fight forever
Woah, ay, oh, ay, oh woah, ay, oh, ay, oh
I have my scars, I'll always remember
When I lost it all and never surrendered
Woah, ay, oh, ay, oh woah, ay, oh, ay, oh

What up y'all? My name's MadChild
I've been off the Xanies for a while now
I was waking up feeling suicidal
But I think I'm finally starting to smile now
Man, I lived a hell of a life
I've been to hell and back twice
Lost ten million dollars
Three different addictions
Don't tell me 'bout paying the price
From penthouses with top models
Hanging with strippers we'd pop bottles
To anxious and hiding alone in
My room from the world
I was pissing in pop bottles
From chart-topping and being a role model
To flop records and lost follows
When I cop product, got a month's
Worth when I left the spot, cops followed
If you saw a photo
It was only face 'cause I
Was 85 pounds overweight
Mental breakdown, tryna catch a
Plane, wasn't MadChild, i was only Shane
My puppy Lola was my only gang
Had to put my baby in a fucking grave
I walked away from every brick I laid so I
Could build a new wall to keep me safe

I'm finally someone that I know again
I started climbing out the hole I'm in
Fighting demons and I know I'll win
It's time for me to mend these broken wings

Life has been hard, I know it gets better
This is a war that I'll fight forever
Woah, ay, oh, ay, oh woah, ay, oh, ay, oh
I have my scars, I'll always remember
When I lost it all and never surrendered
Woah, ay, oh, ay, oh woah, ay, oh, ay, oh

When you fall down and the world's closing in
You can get up again, up again

Life has been hard, I know it gets better
This is a war that I'll fight forever
Woah, ay, oh, ay, oh woah, ay, oh, ay, oh
I have my scars, I'll always remember
When I lost it all and never surrendered
Woah, ay, oh, ay, oh woah, ay, oh, ay, oh
