No more stress, now I'm straight, now I get it.
Now I take time to think, before I make mistakes, just for my family's sake.
That part of me left yesterday, the heart of me is strong today
I'm blessed to say the old me dead and gone away

I've been traveling on this road too long
Just trying to find my way back home
The old me is dead and gone. Dead and gone.

I turn my head to the east I dont see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the west still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the north, swallow that pill that they call pride
The old me is dead and gone, but the new me will be alright
