No Hope Without The Tree Of Hope

We traveled a rough journey

with our time in our drug and alcohol addiction,

Our lives can be filled with happiness

and we are no more pain and contradictions.

To our programs that help to see we have our lives back in order,

and then some.

The stories we have to tell

about our insanity and incidents

of trap houses and other people, places, and things, we came from.

We stand now strong

for our freedom to recover and know

the tools to be clean.

What we do now, that we are clean

and sober is to do what’s right

and to keep the knowledge and that’s what we mean.

To remember we are to recover

and say nope to alcohol and dope,

We are powerful – No Hope Without

The Tree Of Hope
