The Pharmacracy
Crossing over the next life level
over the hill double digits
crosstown 59th, uptown 60th
my closest friend RX
guide, translator and dispensary
preferred or not preferred
formulary or non-formulary
designed to self-destruct
at the non-preferred level
always in pain trying to sustain
RX slapping dollar dollar bills
from hand to hand just insane
multi billion dollar industry
and a world still in pain
the non-preferred psycho
government's best friend
we the people, yes we can
crossing over the next life level
minds must unsubscribe
life after life choosing sides
hate on hate constant genocide
and no vaccine to prescribe
non-preferred life unchosen
still trying to be freed
I can't breathe
bodies worn and torn
building non-formulary economies
I can't breathe
non-preferred in a democracy
racism still at eye’s view
in a world of many hues
minds of many still confused
the world’s republic is changing
a Pharmacracy is evolving
in the cracks of humanity.
