Breaking My Addiction - Songs On The Path Of Awakening
by Tom Downing
Breaking My Addiction I wrote Breaking My Addiction as a reflection on the subtle addiction to becoming someone else — comparing ourselves, trying to fit in, and believing we need to be better before we can truly be ourselves. For me, the song is about letting go of that struggle and listening more closely to the quieter voice within. There’s something freeing about recognising that perfection isn’t the goal, and that fear of failure doesn’t have to determine the direction we take. This is a slower, more reflective song, but it still carries an uplifting energy. I hope it offers a moment to pause, reconnect with your own intuition, and remember that there is nothing wrong with being uniquely you. Sometimes the journey isn’t about becoming someone better. It’s about coming home to who you already are.
