Medicinal Poison

Medicine made poison
Victims left to rot in prison
Millions gone, in vain
A tag line of “ending pain”
It only led to more
A world left worse than before
Sackler family made wealthy
Feeding an FDA that gave them a pass
Police state hunting down victims, already jailed by dependency
Bars of a prison, walls of rehab, all but taking their life
Addiction is the point
One family fed misery to us
Filled their pockets and let our community fall
Found no consequences
Washed their hands and walked away scot free
Fuck your Oxy
We’ll avenge them all by proxy

Set myself with a direction in life
Thought I could influence change, it wasn't the fight I thought
I don't see satisfaction staring back at me
I don't see the person that I strived to become
Losing grip with who I once was, losing touch with who I wanted to be
I decided I wanted something different, something I will never find
An ideal that only exists in my mind
Not much of a leg up to begin with
Still wasted what I had
Need to get myself right. Need to mend my path and keep a fixed view

Unrepresented

Walking down the street today
See the odd "for sale" sign on the way
I know I'll likely never be able to afford a home for myself
Locked out of the system, kept from the dream
Don't work hard enough, or so they deem
No real difference no matter who's in charge
The chasm between them and us, increasingly large
I’m meant to fight for those that don't fight for me?
Meanwhile they’ll only listen if I pay a campaign fee?
The people meant to help us just fly our flags
I'm tired of being unrepresented, tired of being left behind
No deed. We're not free.

Moving On

Losing touch with who I wanted to be but accepting who I can become
Finding new pastures, pursuing new interests
You stay in touch but your friendship fades just like the rest
A wrong turn leaves your old goals in the past
Growing up and moving on, all way too fast
Move on
I had all these ambitions for myself
Dig deep for inspiration, nothing came up
Losing touch with who I wanted to be but accepting who I can become
A life left in the past, something just not meant to last. Growing up and moving on, was it really too fast?
