It's like a new year where I proclamate not to drink
Someone passed me by and made me think
He had said you done so well
You were clean 11 years before you fell
Told me get right up and do it again
He spoke to me with encouragement like a real true friend
It meant a lot to me
Helped me stop realize, wake up open my eyes and see
Sometimes all it takes is encouragement and it's like a pat on the back
Stop drinking, stay away from the dope sac
Words of encouragement get back on the right track
Let go of what's an added problem and face the fact
Thank you for planting that seed
And because of that it will grow big and I will be freed
