I stay sober to see tomorrow but days when the rain is a little darker, it gets harder just for a little bit.

I stay sober to see myself grow but sometimes I look in the mirror and realize that I will never compare to those people.

I stay sober to make people proud, but more and more everyday it just seems like I disappoint them more.

I stay sober so I don't hurt anyone but days are starting to feel like weeks again.

I stay sober to see my family grow, but some days it doesn't feel like there family at all.

I stay sober in order to see my future but right now my future isn't even seen by myself.

I stay sober to find tomorrow is no better than yesterday.

I stay sober hoping someone comes along and swipes me off my feet.

I stay sober to find that happiness I once felt but I know I will never feel that again.

Staying sober got me nowhere so imma let sober go.
