xMeans to an Endx - Not an End in Itself

A means to an end
Not an end in itself
In order to stay true
You need to love yourself

A pledge you take
A pledge you take
Life long commitment
Community focused
On self improvement

This is what going to take
To avoid a life chock full of mistakes
Keeping a clean fucking mind
Can't go back to a life dominated by panic this life should be mine

Shoulda been more quick
To give up this schtick
Destroying my life
And fucking making me sick

It was so fucking debilitating
The fact I kept going back to it is so frustrating

This is what going to take
To avoid a life chock full of mistakes
Keeping a clean fucking mind
Can't go back to a life of panic. This life should be mine

There are so many years that I have lost
Dry heaving daily knowing my life was fucking gone
Fight or flight engaged for days
Not knowing when it'll stop just wanting it all to fade away

Straight edge
A choice between life or death
Bliss or pain
Functioning or misery

Straight edge
My fucking salvation
Once I am free from this
I won't fall prey to my inclination
Again

A means to an end
Not an end in itself
In order to stay true
You need to love yourself

A pledge you take
Life long commitment
Community focused
On self improvement
