The Invading Sickness (Slam)

Camera shy, swollen eyes

Paranoid freak, wet cheeks

Panic swells, brutal hell

Introverted mind, immensely blind

Schizophrenia, anxiety

Eating disorders, ADHD....

Who am I? What have I become?

My mental state has abolished

Fears and nightmares are seeping through

Leaking in my veins and flooding into my heart

My emotions bloom with toxic vengeance 

I am in the swallowed deaths of despair

A dark well with no way out

How do I climb back into the light?

Where's the power I hold? 

The magic that can soothe all wounds and lift the spirits of those untouched by a kind hand

Where is it? Why can I not find my true self?

That's right, I'm captured and stuck in a well.

Captured by the dictators and mind controllers

My ultimate potential is running past my fingertips like silky sand

And I watch it drop into a sloppy mess on the ground

Never to be picked up again

Is it not sad that the world is filled with lives unable to live as freely as the universe could offer?

We are controlled to survive on pieces of paper that apparently have value of any sort. 

Then we are required to follow the obnoxious laws that make you give up those little pieces of paper you took part of your lifetime to achieve

We are judged by the religions we worship or the opinions we have

Most of which I'll keep to myself, my true self

Then we fight for wars for the sick domination of one another

We are forced to eat impure foods that are filled with cancer creations and health conditions 

And we complain about the problems that are constantly occurring

I mean why do a lot of people have more mental illnesses nowadays? 

Eating disorder rates have increased drastically since the 90s

There are children who are taking medications for anxiety, and ADHD

Why the hell have we let them in our brains? 

The bullshit they're teaching us, feeding us, making us do... It's destroying

It's destroying all possibilities....
