Gonna share something with you that’s down right conceivable
What Im speaking is the truth, its quite believable
Like Oprah has shown, anything you put your mind to is achievable
No matter how much you’re stressing, your life it is retrievable
Stay open to the blessing, let it in, be receivable
Dr. Nido Qubein says: if you network anyone is reachable
Like a student at High Point University, always remain teachable
If you lean on religion when things get rocky, remain preachable
Try not to get cocky, even the President is impeachable
This disease makes you sick, but don’t think its unbeatable
Bad decisions add up quick, very repeatable
The best thing about addiction, while defiant, its quite treatable
Like the Patriots learned from the Giants, they’re not undefeatable
No matter the past, get it off your mind, nothing is unspeakable
Repetitively I maintain, nothing is unspeakable
Competitively insane, this thinking’s not unreasonable
Feels good living in recovery, the weather is quite seasonable
Sign a contract with yourself, make it unbreachable
Throw the white lies in the wash, they are bleachable
As human beings we are fragile, were quite breakable
Don’t wait until the last breath to find out life is quite takeable
Like basketball, give yourself a shot at life that’s quite makeable
Be true to yourself, living this way is not fakeable
Like Josh Hamilton found out, no goal is unhittable
Some decisions last a lifetime, some actions are unacquittable
But living as addicts, we think just about anything is permissible
Willing to lose it all, just about anything is dismissible
Were crafty at destruction, choosing anything that’s abusable
The excuses we come up with, many are so amusable
Not funny though,we me may be blind to it, many of our actions are inexcusable
Some people don’t even know, needles aren’t reusable
Share with another user, diseases are contractable
Some can be taken care of, others are untreatable
The best admission Ive ever made was my life had become unmanageable
Walked around in a stupor for a while, feeling indestructible
Beat into submission I found I could be hurt, quite damageable
Glad that with this program, my life is reconstructable
Might have the chance to be a family man, like Cliff Huxtable
Many have lost hope, thought they were unlovable
Just go to a meeting, find out you’re very huggable
Thought all hope was leaking out, those holes are very pluggable
Remove that chip off your shoulder, it’s very shruggable
At first this concept might seem incomprehensible
Gotta look at it with an open mind, be sensible
Make yourself accountable, be dependable
You are truly worth it, no ones life is expendable
My life now is truly unbelievable
Thank you for taking the time, I hope this poem was readable
