Story behind the song
You'll see.
Lyrics
The footsteps he had to follow were just too big for his feet
The pressure of his father rests solely on his shoulders, you see?
Standards to live up to, both athletic and intellectually
He thought being greater was something he'd never get to be
Father was in the military; in fact, he was too
But mediocre achievements seemed to be all he could do
Amidst all the pressure he turned to the bottle and drugs
It all started in college, seemed all he wanted was love
Got charged with DUI and arrested for petty theft
His name started off with prestige but I doubt that there's any left
Drank heavily for over 2 decades of his life
Despite the shame from his father and all the pain in his wife
Cause...you see that's just the way that pressure crushes you
No matter what you do, no matter whom you run into
It's always there and all that we can do is try to cope with it
You’re knowing this; all you can do is pray till it's over with
Chorus:
Dry drunk syndrome is a medical condition
You make rash decisions without asking for permission
So listen, you don't even got to be a drunk to have it
It's your mind being clouded after quitting drinking habits
It just shows how your past follows you
How past mistakes can run up and swallow you
You start to act childish, start to over react
With decisions that's rigid, where your brains be at?
Later on he started to reach his road to Triumph
Despite hate from opposes cause all his foes didn't like it
Now look, there's happiness contained in this paining story
He decided to abstain at the age of 40
His rain was glory, not fake or corny, just spick-and-span
Cause now he became a born again Christian man
Nothing hits the fan anymore,
Ready for riches and success, no less
Cause now he's got his life in order
Got rid of bad karma, he's in good physical condition
Exercises and rests more, reached his best score in life
He feels he's prophet-like, not wrong, just right
He even says he speaks to God at night..
Cause...you see that's just the way you overcome it all
Cause you realize that there aint nobody that's too tough to fall
It's always there unless you do something to try to end it
I meant it, some people find God to form a friendship
Chorus:
Dry drunk syndrome is a medical condition
You make rash decisions without asking for permission
So listen, you don't even got to be a drunk to have it
It's your mind being clouded after quitting drinking habits
It just shows how your past follows you
How past mistakes can run up and swallow you
You start to act childish, start to over react
With decisions that's rigid, where your brains be at?
Overcame his father's shadow when he stopped being lazy
His vision wasn't hazy, took the job to new heights
It was crazy; he even raised a handful of babies
Crushed opposition whether it was a man or lady
A matter of maybe became the use of religion in his job
The maybe turned to yes, it was his sure guide to safety
He succeeded beyond heights of hate and opinion
He made it; dominions were either supportive or shady.
There was no in between; they either loved him or hated him
That's the price of success even though some just degraded him
But he made it no less; he just kept on the push
Feel his glory? I just made you root for........
Cause...even the monsters in the world are human beings
Africans, Canadians, Americans or Europeans
It's funny how our feelings are subjective to specifics
Get with it; dramatic stories can kill a critic
