Re-Habbed

I know I’m not normal In the sense I want to be And I can’t make the world conformal Or the center of it me I lived day to day always in the same day Caught in a mind I didn’t know And I couldn’t will it drink it or drug it away So I had to find some way to go I went to the wife the doc and the shrink Anywhere for some relief All I was given was a little pill so pink And told to take it with belief It took a long time to get the right pill To do what my mind needed of it Then at last one worked and my mind got its’ fill Yet I needed something more to get full benefit Off to a rehab to learn to live anew And learn how to re-think So many things I had to learn to do And the process would at times stink The process has been painful the process slow The trip has been a wild ride But for all the troubles I’ve seen myself grow And my smile is a mile wide

Anti-deppressants disconnect you from your soul and your deeper inspiration. Never take them if you want your life to have a greater purpose. The pain is something to channel into art not to oppress.
