The chemical straitjacket of the shrinks who
Always think they know but never do
Does not fit me because they do not get me

Left behind to right my mind myself
In my age in an age of anxiety
Falling through the cracks of society

But minding higher finding a higher shelf
Alone and on my own a better
Remedy to free me not to fetter

Not medication exploration
Freeing me so I may see what I may see
From the view up here surprisingly clear

Up above where love is the explanation
The voice of love never answers to fear
Though the door is always open to the free

So here I am where I want to be
