Dear Alcohol

Dear alcohol
I think that me and you should have a chat
It's been a while since we talked
So let me bring it back i was sixteen
Still in high school on the
Day that we first met
I knew that we’d be friends when I
First held you in my hand
And pretty soon I'd sit wit' you
Inside my room and we’d forget
Tests at school and homies too and
Every problem that we had
You made me cool and all my dudes
Were jealous of the love we had
You needed me, I needed you
I felt like you were heaven-sent

This is goodbye
We can't do this shit no more
We had some good times
But I'm not who I was before

Soon enough we'd hang out every
Weekend dealin' with my stress
Say goodnight and placed you right there
On my table where I slept i'd wake up
You'd be there for me right when
I got out of bed
I think that's why you meant so much
To me because you never left
And pretty quick you’d make me
Sick, I’d take a sip, you'd hurt my head
When I would drink you made me think
’bout all the things that I regret
From beer to rum to whiskey shots
To anything that I could get
You used to give me life
But it was clear that you wanted me dead

This is goodbye
We can't do this shit no more
We had some good times
But I'm not who I was before

Lately, I've been lookin’ back at
All the time we spent
Didn't know that hanging out wit'
You is makin' me forget
I admit that I've been lonely since
You chose to pack your bags
Sometimes I wanna call
But you know I can't take you back
And I can't lie
I never cried this many times over an ex
It blows my mind how hard I tried
To make you treat me with respect
When things were right then it was nice
But when we'd fight my place got wrecked
Look in my eyes and say goodbye
It's awful but it's for the best

Can't avoid you see you every time I go out
I ignore you
But I really have to tell you now

This is goodbye
We can't do this shit no more
We had some good times
But I'm not who I was before this is goodbye
We can't do this shit no more
We had some good times
But I'm not who I was before
