I have other obligations now - the show, my family, my life... though I know that without my sobriety I wouldn't have any of those things.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I have a lot of obligations.
People still question my sobriety, my commitment to the program, and that hurts. I take things day by day, and sometimes I take them minute by minute, but I honor my commitment to stay sober.
Hey, we have obligations. We all work for a living now.
I owe everything to my mom. She definitely got me to where I'm at today. Without her I wouldn't be able to do the things that I do. She and I are very close.
The thing is, if I don't have sobriety, I don't have anything.
When the show is over we still have to pay our rent, we have to buy food. We have to do all the same things that you do.
I have family obligations and all that stuff. I get my kids six weeks in the summer, which is a real intense period of time. I'm with them every minute of the day.
I owe my solitude to other people.
I vowed that whenever my family needed me, I would give up everything to go to them, no matter what. The show must go on was meaningless to me.
When I started doing music full time, I figured out my job wasn't something I needed to be completely sober for.
