And all of his friends said man you gotta stop Gotta let it go, but he couldn't say no Gotta let it go, but he couldn't say no Checked into rehab, but it didn't take 12 step program, it was all a fake His wife took the kids and she moved out of town And all of his friends they stopped coming around Let it go, but he couldn't say no Let it go, but he couldn't say no
