The Treatment
Treatment
Is that depression
Treatment
Maybe it's anxiety
Lets apply more treatment
Oh can we say bipolar
Definitely up the dose
What about insanity
Let's commit for every treatment
Treatment treatment treatment
Hurt people definitely return the favor
They'll make sure you hurt too
Oh i am suppose to be PC
Nothing about mental health is PC
It's trauma, its life, it's experiences
It's habits that develop
Oh don't forget about self medication
Big pharma gonna love this
Until they see the twist
How many pills
Maybe just one
Or why not two
Let's up to three
Four could be the final score
Why not five or more
That's like winning the superbowl
Drug pushing like it's the streets
Got people really feeling weak
Committed to what
Committed to who
Committed to anything that
Wait
Did i ask you
did you want this red pill
Or maybe the blue pill
I mean we cover all the colors on the pinwheel
Oh so you addiction
We can solve that
Oh no don't worry about the diet
We can just fly by it
Food is food
Processed isn't a really a thing
Just don't listen to the propaganda
Here have another bite
We have the solution for that
We're not trying to addict you
Why are you working out
Why are you walking
Oh please we're not stalking
You don't need any of that
It's all trap
Come here let's take this
So you can be in bliss
Oh you feel worse
Lets give you this first
Oh you got sick
Here's bed for you
The IV is here for you
Oh wait your fading well
That's deflating
Here's some morphine
Now go to sleep
Who's next
We need to keep our pharmaceutical
Like an ultra dependence
That tax break aint never gonna break
Death and taxes always for the win
Death taxes are paid daily
So we keep the government fed
