Mind Altering

The time has come to face the facts.
Let's stop getting ourselves off track.

Doctors push the drug that helps them the most.
While it makes us feel like a ghost.

We know that we sometimes feel a little off.
Let's hope we do not get knocked off.

Some of the drugs that they do give us.
They only seem to hide us.

Mind altering is what the doctors will not say.
Because they do not want to scare us away.

Drugs of the mind alerting kind have no hope.
It might as well be legal dope.
