Fighting The Flask

(Karianne Gabaldon)

This is about an alcoholic man who decides to get help. He had realized that the booze world wasn’t for him and he knew he was fatally fading, so he put down the alcohol and never looked back. I’d say it’s pretty inspirational for those struggling with addiction.

(Verse 1) 
 
Malibu Rum; 
He stirs the rim. 
Leaving his mom, 
She’s done with him. 
 
He’s driven while drinking, 
So many times. 
What the hell is the thinking? 
Has he lost his mind? 
 
Mom doesn’t want him, 
Around anymore. 
He’s more focused on his gin, 
And all of his in-and-out whores. 
 
(Pre Chorus) 
 
Then he looks inside his mind, 
Asks himself why he lives this way. 
He knows that he’s running out of time, 
If only he had a place to stay. 
Then he says, 
“This isn’t the life for me”, 
So he lays, 
Down his Bloody Mary. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Mmm, 
He’s going on, 
Pretending like nothing’s wrong. 
Mmm, 
He’s kicking ass, 
Fighting the flask. 
He’ll never look back. 
 
Mmm, 
He’s head straight, 
To the door, 
Where new life awaits. 
Mmm, 
He’s kicking ass, 
Fighting the flask. 
He’ll never look back. 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
Alcoholics Anonymous, 
Where his next destination. 
To fight his addiction is, 
A major complication. 
 
But he admits he has a problem, 
And that’s the first step. 
They try and help him solve them, 
His addiction to alcohol and sex. 
 
He picks up his bottles, 
Of empty booze, 
He goes full throttle, 
‘Cause he’s got nothing to lose. 
 
The only beer, 
He has left in his heart. 
Is drawing near, 
A mental scar. 
 
(Pre Chorus) 
 
So he continues to stay, 
Clean and sober. 
All his worries washed away, 
Once he said it was over. 
And he says, 
“Why did I ever try, 
To hide away from my lies?” 
It’s no surprise. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Mmm, 
He’s going on, 
Pretending like nothing’s wrong. 
Mmm, 
He’s kicking ass, 
Fighting the flask. 
He’ll never look back. 
 
Mmm, 
He’s head straight, 
To the door, 
Where new life awaits. 
Mmm, 
He’s kicking ass, 
Fighting the flask. 
He’ll never look XXXXX
