[Verse 1]

Anybody ever dug a mud hole so deep to the point there's no where to go

That's me, the only thing is I dug mine with my own shovel

3 a.m. stumblin' in drunk knowin' I was in trouble

Didn't have the nerve to kiss her on the check and then tell her I love her so

Well I have, hell I've had less good times than I had bad

She'd get mad, we'd get glad, then I'd crash again hot damn

Over and over, I threw another load on my shoulders

But not on purpose, no just bein' ill and dumb marriage out of focus

And it don't matter how hard you try to let the past be the past

And move past that trash on to a pasture with green grass

Just stuck starin' at a half empty glass up at night glarin' at the bad dreams you had

Our relationship won't get nowhere with that

Yeah it's bad so we need peace and it's time for some relief

[Chorus]

And now I get back to me

I just get back to me

I'm finally free I'm finally free

So I can get back to me

[Verse 2]

Runnin' around lookin' down for too long, lookin' out for the toes I step on

Tip-toein' around a broken home, divorce time to move on

It's been seven years since I said "I do" but I don't

Feel the same as I did back then, we're fightin', fussin', and carryin' on

And the kids don't understand it and I understand them 'cause I came from a broken home

So the last thing I wanted to do was hurt them, but I've been doin' it all along, so I'm gone

I know that when I look back on the past it'll be proven that stayin' together for them was wrong

'Cause I've seen everythin' push to shove and everything in between

You're supposed to love no matter what but what if that means me hatin' you

And we end up in a custody battle, knuckles up but there'll be no dukes for us

Instead I'll just give it up, I'll forever love you but look here it's time for some relief

[Chorus]

And now I get back to me

I just get back to me

I'm finally free I'm finally free

So I can get back to me

[Bridge]

He said she said I say stop

I'm clearin' out the junk mail from my inbox

My times like a safe that can't be unlocked

Tryin's like wastin' time spinnin' like hands on a clock

[Chorus]

And now I get back to me

I just get back to me

I'm finally free I'm finally free

So I can get back to me

[Outro]

To the man I used to be

And now I get back to me

Let's see who I'm meant to be

I just get back to me

Livin' live chasin' my destiny

I'm finally free I'm finally free

So I can get back to me
