I drink to remember
I smoke to forget
some things to
be proud of
some stuff to regret
Run down some
dark alleys
in my own head
something is changing
changing, changing
I go back to Clifton
to see my old friends
the best people I could
ever have met
The skin of a fat one
hide from the Feds
something is changing
changing, changing
So I kiss goodbye to
every little ounce of pain
light a cigarette and
wish the world away
I got out I got out
I'm alive and I'm
here to stay
So I hold two fingers
up to yesterday
light a cigarette and
smoke it all away
I got out, I got out
I'm alive and I'm
here to stay
Was down in the kitchen
drinking White Lightning
he's with my momma
yelling and fighting
It's not the first time
praying for silence
something is changing
changing, changing
So I kiss goodbye to
every little ounce of pain
light a cigarette and
wish the world away
I got out, I got out
I'm alive and I'm
here to stay
So I hold two fingers
up to yesterday
light a cigarette and
smoke it all away
I got out, I got out
I'm alive and I'm
here to stay
There's a story
for every corner
of this place
Running so hard
you got out
but your knees
got grazed
I'm an old dog
but I learned some
new tricks yeah
So I kiss goodbye to
every little ounce of pain
light a cigarette and
wish the world away
I got out, I got out
I'm alive and I'm
here to stay
So I hold two fingers
up to yesterday
light a cigarette and
smoke it all away
I got out, I got out
I'm alive and I'm
here to stay
Hey, hey it's fine
Hey, hey it's fine
Hey, hey it's fine
I left it behind
