Chorus:
I swear I’ll find my way home, right out of this storm
Ya know the devil, he gonna try to bury me but never will I let him prevail
Verse 1:
Fell asleep at 5am in the morning and something telling me I gotta listen up, heed a warning
Burning the candle at both ends, no longer can I pretend
Gonna catch up to me when I am not looking and I know inside I’m better than that
And I wonder why it took me so long to realize my vice, my demise
Pre-Chorus:
I got the strength, the faith, man whatever it takes to overcome
Believe me when I come with the fire faith, the strength man
I got what it takes to overcome, I’m coming home
Chorus
Verse 2:
Black out drunk at 5am in the morning
Something telling me I gotta wake up smell the coffee
Burning the candle at both ends, nevermore shall I pretend
Won’t catch up to me because I am ready to change my life from the inside
And each day I’m growing steady
So long to my vice, its my choice, its my life
Pre-Chorus --> Chorus
