Lyrics

This bout a kid that swallowed a pill
Looking for relieve but caught by the thrill
Symptoms occur, prescriptions get real
It’s for your health come on be real
Destroy your body from the inside out
Look what they got to prescribe for ya now
Anti-depressants you’ll feel them in seconds
Dopamine receptors won’t be too receptive
Eat em like candy, keepin’ em handy
I speak the truth so they can’t stand me
How come the world is so demanding
So fucked up punchlines aren’t landing
Seen em fall asleep while standing
The zan mans the sand man
Take em all that’s the plan man
They’re doing it til' they can't stand
This is a story about a fiend
Whose hooked on them pills and stuck in a dream
Seen it before with Xanax and lean
Down with the sickness they cannot get clean
Might turn a habit into a routine
Anything for more dopamine
Can’t wake up life’s not what it seems
Don’t wake up life’s not what is seems
This is a story about a fiend
Whose hooked on them pills and stuck in a dream
Seen it before with Xanax and lean
Down with the sickness they cannot get clean
Might turn a habit into a routine
Anything for more dopamine
Can’t wake up life’s not what it seems
Don’t wake up life’s not what is seems
It all starts with a need to escape
Might take some more if it’s feeling great
look at the time it's getting late
Up at night conversing with fate
Demons tell em’ there’s money to make
Tossing’ and turning they lie awake
A servant to those with money to pay
Stuck in race but they can’t escape
Psychology tells me this a cycle
And this is exactly how life go
Not religious but I turn to the Bible
Hoping to learn from mistakes of disciples
I look to those who worship idols
Who now I consider my rivals
Their catching’ waves all over Tidal
Addicted to money but live in denial
This is a story about a fiend
Whose hooked on them pills and stuck in a dream
Seen it before with Xanax and lean
Down with the sickness they cannot get clean
Might turn a habit into a routine
Anything for more dopamine
Can’t wake up life’s not what it seems
Don’t wake up life’s not what is seems
This is a story about a fiend
Whose hooked on them pills and stuck in a dream
Seen it before with Xanax and lean
Down with the sickness they cannot get clean
Might turn a habit into a routine
Anything for more dopamine
Can’t wake up life’s not what it seems
Don’t wake up life’s not what is seems
Everyone struggles with addiction
Money or power what’s ur affliction
What is on your mind all the time?
Can you turn it off? Or Are ya lion
If time is money then sleep ain’t cheap
So don’t waste time countin’ them sheep
One of the worst drugs is anti-depressants
Most of the time they be causing depression
Money is probably coming in second
Materialism is a rich mans weapon
Addicted to luxuries they have created
Then big Pharma just keep em sedated
Don’t judge a book by its cover
Might discover the next greatest author
Don’t let someone else write your story
Ain’t no heaven on earth this is purgatory
This is a story about a fiend
Whose hooked on them pills and stuck in a dream
Seen it before with Xanax and lean
Down with the sickness they cannot get clean
Might turn a habit into a routine
Anything for more dopamine
Can’t wake up life’s not what it seems
Don’t wake up life’s not what is seems
This is a story about a fiend
Whose hooked on them pills and stuck in a dream
Seen it before with Xanax and lean
Down with the sickness they cannot get clean
Might turn a habit into a routine
Anything for more dopamine
Can’t wake up life’s not what it seems
Don’t wake up life’s not what is seems
