I strongly believe he wrote about overcoming his drinking addiction that caused him to be removed by his band members earlier this decade.
Overcome is the first song on the album which is known in the music industry as the "tone setter" or "message letter"; bands will use this as sending a message.
Along with this, the Overcome music video shows Scott and the other members in a concert(s) with a reunion setting in between these concert shots. When Scott was removed by Creed it happened by pure embarrassment. Scott passed out during the opening song at a concert in Chicago during 2004, and then once again in Orlando, which he later admitted he had no memory of the Orlando show. It was obvious alcohol was starting to take its toll on Scott and the band, so Creed was forced to have to let him go.
With all this information it would appear that Scott has bettered his life and has Overcome his addiction.
But meanings of songs is like the Bible; its what it means to YOU, what you take from it, and how it helps you through your triumphs and/or tribulations.
