Your rating:
These social drugs Messing with my mind These social drugs Telling me im fine These social drugs Messing with my head These social drugs They want me dead Afraid to address All the reality before me Too proud to confess That im addicted to a lie So I seek temporary feelings To replace reality Though the truth is telling me I should die, no BUT IVE BEEN TAUGHT TO LOVE IT But they just don't confront it I hate when I found out That I can't do what I wanted This emotional tantrum Has become somewhat of an anthem playing FOR TIME TO TAKE A LITTLE TRIP To hide this condemnation I find a compilation Of a manmande stimualtion to deny my situation Now because reality is distorting what I see Reporting FACTS THAT LEAD A sense of false security So in my imagination Oh I must find a recreation DESPERATELY SEARCHING WAYS To open my sensations theres no equilibrium inebriated till im numb intoxicated till im dumb to avoid confrontation these social drugs messing with my mind these social drugs telling me im blind these social drugs messing with my head these social drugs telling me im dead now this chemical analogy is our emotional reality these political traditional and ethical stimulants when the SOCIAL MEDICAID wont let us be too upset to the way things really are in DARKENED CAMOFLAUGE we pray and those religious structures tell us GOD want us to suffer to suppot a situation we all know is obligation and if you shun an obligation they'll just gun your repuation like mob intimidation to enforce participation see they need to keep us fiends to their lies and broken dreams and if you find another means toe-tip into the stream and if you wanted to get clean theres this pool of social streams holding up their social GOLD deifying noble things now were all stuck in tradition unable to state out position to afraid to contradict the expectations of the system oh and the harsh reality is they've made Grace for you and me because theyre just enslaving you and me!!! these social drugs messing with my mind these social drugs telling me im fine these social drugs messing with my head these social drugs telling me im dead
