I'm quitting cigarettes and drinking,
and constant marijuana,
and sugar, salt, milk, meat, eggs, tea, and coffee.
Bread, rice, biscuits, pastries.
Chips, pasta, cereal grains.
Candy, cookies, crackers.
All that fake factory-made crap.
Quit cooking oil, next I'll quit cooking completely.
I'll stay rooted like the soil in good food that don't need sweetening.
I skipped school. I quit college.
I quit job after horrible job,
cause I quit honoring money way back when I was a child.
Yeah. Y'all already know that I quit sleeping.
I remember that I'm blessed with the songs that I keep singing.
Quit complaining, quit debating, quit explaining my reasoning,
but I ain't never gon' my contemplative thinking.

CHORUS:
I'm giving up my addictions.
Look at what I thought I needed, actually I didn't.
It's got me asking me, what was I thinking?
That's why I'm quitting. I'm quitting.

I quit wanting, shopping, copping, balling,
modeling, auctioning, following.
I quit walking through the halls
of the malls and the offices.
I quit driving, I been biking and I'm jogging often.
I been trying. Man, I been working something awful.
Quit disrespecting, intercepting conversations, interjecting -
nearly stopped speaking because I wanna be respectful.
It's been so long since I've been honest with my own six senses.
I wanna cut out all that garbage that I've been ingesting.

(CHORUS)

I see disease in our culture and its memes on the daily.
Now I'm getting free so I'ma quit what I ain't need.
I might still take a hit off of some trees if you ask me
but I ain't fiend like I did in the past.
I been living with the crutch of all this stuff and it's crazy:
when I lifted it all up I felt much less lazy.
I wanna live the way that I've been planning
with my family on the planet -
getting old slow and tryna die happy.

(CHORUS)

I been quitting my addictions to increase my lifespan.
I'm just kicking it, sitting in divine hands.
I think I figured out how to be a nice man.
Love thy self and try to walk the right path.

(CHORUS)
