Take a moment to check in,

And let yourself find calm,

So, just breathe in peace,

And let the tension be gone.

PAUSE

It’s no secret that we all,

Sometimes struggle with a substance.

We try to stay away,

And yet, it feels like an injustice.

PAUSE

And sometimes that one substance,

Such as cigarettes, food, or booze,

Can overtake our lives,

And make us feel like fools.

PAUSE

So, breathe in deep,

And open up,

To the truth inside of you.

Accepting the issue

Is the first step,

To healing through and through.

PAUSE

And, as you breathe,

Remember this:

No substance has control.

It’s you who is the shepherd

Of your beautiful soul.

PAUSE

So, take a minute and forgive–

Let go of criticizing yourself.

Regardless of your addiction,

This will help restore your mental health.

For the more we beat ourselves up,

The harder it is to stop,

That addicting substance rears its head,

And keeps us on the run.

PAUSE

So, take back your power,

And give yourself a voice.

And if you decide to use the substance,

Stay strong and make it your choice.

PAUSE

And, remember now, 

You’re not a failure,

But a fragile, beautiful being,

Who is perfectly imperfect,

And knowing that,

Is truly freeing.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
