Maximum Formula

On this pinhead, there is a drug

It was created in a laboratory in California last year

It is 1000 times more powerful than heroin

This so called "designer drug" is effectively undetectable

This is the 21st Century

How are we going to guard against this?

Chemists today can make small molecular changes to any drug

That puts it beyond the definition of prohibitive law

This drug is not only undetectable, it is legal

If you ask me if we can win the war against drugs

Then I have to say I don't know

We can win battles, but at the moment, we're losing the war

We're not fighting a battle against criminals

Making money off other people's miseries

We are fighting a battle against

One the major crises of the 20th Century

In my opinion, THE major crisis!!

We cannot ultimately stop the supply

Of cocaine, heroin, or any other drug

We can only limit the demand for it

That will mean making a decent life for people

And producing a decent society

That people want to live in, not escape from

That, my friends, will not be easy

That is all I have to say

Monologue sampled from the English version of Traffic

"So what you're going to do is, inhale the smoke, and hold it. 'What is it, like freebase?' 'Not like, it is"

"Its a disease, an allergy of the body, an obsession of the mind"
