I haven't smoked a cigarette in two whole weeks And I'm learning not to hate myself for little things All this time alone is forcing me to take control of The times I don't clean my apartment or communicate And when I have to work tomorrow and stay up too late I finally feel inspired And I'm not okay with the way I was (The way I was) (The way I was) The way I was So I'll draw my own lot in life I know what it's like To be present Without presence I've come to terms with who I am And I'm learning to love myself again Again Slowly becoming better than Who I've been So let me try and say I'm sorry for the last two years When I was drinking way too often to control my fear Of the meaningless existence where I just disappear And I wanna take a minute to accept the blame For all the times that I would swear to you that I would change I misplaced my motivation And I just remained the same (Remained the same) (Remained the same) Remained the same So I'll draw my own lot in life I know what it's like To be present Without presence I've come to terms with who I am And I'm learning to love myself again (Love myself again) Again Slowly becoming better than Who I've been I know I'm good enough Enough for anyone And finally myself I know I'm good enough Enough for anyone And finally myself I know I'm good enough Enough for anyone And finally myself So I'll draw my own lot in life I know what it's like To be present Without presence I've come to terms with who I am And I'm learning to love myself again (Love myself again) Again So I'll draw my own lot in life (Everything's alright, everything's just fine) I know what it's like (Everything's alright, everything's just fine) To be present Without presence (Everything's alright, everything's just fine) I've come to terms with who I am And I'm learning to love myself again (Everything's alright, everything's just fine) Again Everything's alright

(Another year alone and I'll be right here to face it) (Got this far on my own and) In these moments I tend to panic When I haven't figured out How to forget, when to forget When it comes to myself Trying to fake it, trying to force it Has been so bad for my health But I'm hopeful, even though I I don't have the answers Another year alone and I'll be right here to face it Got this far on my own and I think that I'm gonna make it I'm so done with making up excuses Push my pride aside There's no use in feeling useless (There's no use in feeling useless) On the front porch of my Dad's house Learning how to breath again Ever since he got, remember, I reminded him of them And the moment lapsed so fast If I could only be half of that Another year alone and I'll be right here to face it Got this far on my own and I think that I'm gonna make it I'm so done with making up excuses Push my pride aside There's no use in feeling useless (There's no use in feeling useless) I'm on my way now No place that I'd rather be If I own this, no one can take it from me I'm on my way now No place that I'd rather be If I own this, no one can take it from me (I'm on my way now) (No place that I'd rather be) (If I own this, no one can take it from me)
