When we were kids, subjected to many negatives,

Water from a hose, mom’s cleaning us with old tissues,

The foods we were forced to eat,

Many & more candies & coke,

How many of us learned at a young age to toke.

Cigarettes, drinking alcohol, & dropping acid,

So many drugs, so few time’s,

But so many of us learned then to rhyme,

The drugs to us then made the rhyme, quite sublime…

What drugs were used on us by government,

What did they subject upon us to help the environment,

Who followed the mosquito truck and breathed in the fog,

What did it do to us in the long run, are we paying for it now,

Are the drugs now anymore to our bodies, virulent…?
