Starting Over (feat Ben Bridwell) - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis

One two now that's three plus years I was so proud of

And I threw 'em all away for two styrofoam cups

The irony: everyone will think that he lied to me;

Made my sobriety so public--there's no f**king privacy

If I don't talk about it then I carry a date:

A 08-10-08 that now has been changed

And when they put me in some box as a saint

That I never was it's the false prophet that never came

And will they think that everything that I written has all been fake

Or will I just take my slip to the grave

Uh what the f**k are my parents gonna say

The success story that got his life together and changed

And you know what pain looks like

When you tell your dad to relapsed

Then look him directly into his face

The seat on your shoulders the seemingly heavy weight

I haven't seen tears like this on my girl in a while

The trust that I once built's been betrayed

But I'd rather live telling the truth than be judged for my mistakes

Than falsely held up given props loved and praised

I guess I gotta get this on the page

Feeling sick and helpless lost the compass where self is

I know what I gotta do and I can't help it

One day at a time is what they tell us

Now I gotta find a way to tell them

God help em

One day at a time is what they tell us

Now I gotta find a way to tell them

We fell so hard

Now we gotta get back what we lost lost

I felt you'd go

But you were with me all along along

And every kid that came up to me

And said I was the music they listened to

When they first got clean

Now look at me a couple days sober

I'm fighting demons back of that meeting on the east side

Shaking tweakin' hope that they don't see it

Hope that no one is looking

That no one recognizes that failure under that hoodie

Was posted in the back with my hands crossed shooken

If they call on me I'm passing;

If they talk to me I'm booking out that door

But before I can make it somebody stops me

And says are you Macklemore

Maybe this isn't the place or time

I just wanted to say that if it wasn't for Otherside

I wouldn't have made it

I just look down at the ground and say "Thank you "

She tells me she has nine months and that she's so grateful

Tears in her eyes looking like she's gonna cry f**k

I barely got 48 hours treated like I'm some wise monk

I wanna tell her I relapsed but I can't

I just shake her hand and tell her congrats

Get back to my car and I think I'm tripping yea

'Cause God wrote 'Otherside' that pen was in my hand

I'm just a flawed man man I f**ked up up

Like so many others I just never thought I would

I never thought I would didn't pick up the book

Do in it by myself didn't turn out that good

If I can be an example of getting sober

Then I can be an example of starting over

If I can be an example of getting sober

Then I can be an example of starting over

We fell so hard

Now we gotta get back what we lost lost

I felt you'd go

But you were with me all along along

We fell so hard

Now we gotta get back what we lost lost
