[Verse 1]
I don't need time to think it over
'Cause I've been thinking most my life
Before I'd even come of age
Apologise for my mistakes
Sometimes you know you got to do what's right
I somehow made another morning
The sun comes seeping in the blinds
Who I've hurt, or what I've done
If I did drugs, did I throw up?
This time I'll make a choice that's really mine

[Chorus]
If I'm gonna be someone that I believe in
If I'm gonna be someone the people like
I've had all the time I need to think it over
I've gotta be sober, alright

[Verse 2]
They say old habits die the hardest
I think I learnt mine from the best
Sunrise guilt and sunset shame
Wish I could move and change my name
I'd like some nights I know I won't forget

[Chorus]
If I'm gonna be someone that I believe in
If I'm gonna be someone the people like
I've had all the time I need to think it over
I've gotta be sober, alright
[Bridge]
And I know, there'll be highs and lows
I've had all the time I need to think it over
It's not over 'til it's over

[Chorus]
If I'm gonna be someone that I believe in
If I'm gonna be someone the people like
I've had all the time I need to think it over
I've gotta be sober
I wanna be sober
I'm gonna be sober, alright
