Of My Prescription

I'm here to clarify 
My passions that I never defy 
Prescriptions of my essence
My drug is my vibe 
Addictions to what I do 
No cure to my being true 
My body is vacant of disease 
But my mind is filled with ease. 
Please loan me the keys 
To the vehicle that drives me to new degrees 

Classification of the medicine 
That stimulates the rate of my journey into heights of unknown reason 
Side effects occurring throughout my rhythmic balance
Alleviating limits to my talents...

Medicine for my membrane 
Into a realm that cannot be judged by biased rioters 
Looking to destroy my pleasant domain 
I'm jumping onto your train 
Of thoughts that maestros once sought 
Melody of milligrams multiplied to create 
Forces that prevent being distraught
Malevolent wars being fought 
The battles of good versus evil in your mind 
Everyday one of them is going to shine.

So true 
Indeed the power of good fights a gruesome battle everyday 
Warding off deceitful tendencies 
With angels and demons calling the play by play 
One of the two will always find a way 
To either ruin or make your day 
Some pills are harder to swallow than others 
Solving the conundrum of the potency of each one 
Can be a tedious task 
Good will allow you to bask 
In victories as evil is unmasked.
Temporary triumph over an enemy that reanimates every morning 
Into a new form 
A new challenge 
However, I do not flee because I haven't a choice 
But to respond to the war-call of my enemy's voice. 

Do not take your eye off of the confusion 
For we all know that confusion is the home of sin 
For we know that the 7 deadly are all kin 
Continue to fight the whim 
Remember sink or swim? 
I think I'll choose the latter 
In which life over death matters 
No more rehearsals once the show called life actually begins 
No curtains drop to cover you up 
Once you've stumbled through the lines of your part to play 
Know your role and execute your performance
Awaken that exceptional part of yourself 
Listen to the conformance.

I draw my sword 
Knighted on an oath to live 
And to succeed 
I'm an intricate breed 
A prototypical patriarch to my own existence 
The cure of common sense 
Flows through my veins 
Pumps through my heart 
And proceeds to my brain 
I can't take my life in vain 
Reasons for my pain 
Can't be comprehended by not only what the basic text books on living life can explain. 
My threshold for resistance to the storms is well-documented 
My resilience helps to absorb the dark rain 
That showers throughout my time; my reign. 

And my well collects the waters of life 
Each drop represents a trial 
A meaningful tribulation 
Of each inhabitant of my soul's inner nation. 
My citizens are the memories of destinies far and near 
I will walk through the shadows with no fear.
No barring of the passage of my right to live 
Sharing of myself with others with whom my friendship I choose to give.

This is the make-up of my prescription
My element of life
It's either a hit or it's a miss
My recipe for substantial bliss


Now overdose on this...
