Today i’m getting my real estate license, getting ready to move states with my fiancé, i have a wonderful baby cat that i adore, i’m 8 months sober. Man, back in the day i would listen to this on repeat on burned CDs that my buddy and i made at his place on limewire on the basement computer and beg god for a moment of peace. I thought the world was always over and i would never be better than the failing high schooler i was who was never not high or drunk. Sneaking out every night to do dumb shit with dumb friends, we all knew we were never going anywhere in our lives If you’re young and reading this, know that life will get better whether you want it to or not, all you have to do is keep going. There will be awful days, good days, you’ll go to jail maybe get in a few rollover accidents and think you’re officially fucked and then suddenly a few years later, you realize everything was always going to be okay. Trust in life, trust in yourself even when you have no reason to, trust that there will always be a tomorrow to try again. Just enjoy the ride as best you can
I just came home from detox today, to salvage what's left of my life, while I still can. I have a lovely woman and a daughter that have completely changed my life. I want to cherish that for as long as I have. I'm not really a religious man. I'm not even sure I believe in fate or destiny. But I gotta say, finding this song today and reading your comment, lifted my spirits just a little bit more. Thank you brotha, best wishes to you and your family.
