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 Skin up 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, but 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, but I'm here to stay He's down in the kitchen drinking White Lightning He's with my momma, they're 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, but 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, but 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, but 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, but I'm here to stay Hey, hey, it's fine Hey, hey, it's fine Hey, hey, it's fine I left it behind
