This is inspired by a time when I first quit smoking. I remember thinking about how hard it was, but how easy I could slip back into it. So I started a write in the perspective of someone may have done that and what the outcome was.
This is not a full track. It is just a verse and a chorus. Again, my recordings and execution are loose, but I want to get feedback on the concept as a whole. This also an old song, but I plan to rewrite much of these and repost if they have merit. This is also why these are just parts of songs.
My goal is to convey not just smoking, but alcohol abuse etc. I's easy to fall back to old habits and by doing so you can let many people around you down. If you do it one to many times, you may just be left with you. Please let me know what you think!

Thank you for the feedback Amanda. When I get a window of time I am going to re-work a few of these and repost. I do like your little tweak. It flows better and is much richer.
Thanks!

I don’t know why, but this idea for a (half of a) bridge came to mind. Use it if you like it and if it takes it the direction you want to go.
They say anything thing that don’t kill you
will only make you stronger
But I believe that with the life I lead
I won’t survive much longer

Benny,
Thanks for the feedback and contribution to my song. Would love to try that out. Out of many of the songs I have “written” I really get drawn to this one, so I’m looking forward to getting a revised version up.

Hey, Dennis. I like the concept a lot. Can certainly relate. There’s something to the phrase, “if it didn’t kill me then.” I’d play around with that line and see what you can come up with.
