CHORUS: you've got a second chance // you could go home // escape it all // it's just irrelevant // it's just medicine // it's just medicine // VERSE 1: so i was born and raised // in this Matrix haze // even as a child tried to shake its ways // society lied to me // put my mind in cuffs // said i wasn't enough // because I couldn't adjust // was never at home inside conformity's shoes // comfort zone outside normalcy's rules // was nothing but blue pills for kids like me // don't ask "Why?" // close your eyes // and go back to sleep // (uh) // but no dreaming // said the demons // said, "Succumb to reality" // I'm achieving // by believing // told 'em, "So come to battle me" // in this field // of the Real // it's a war for my Soul // how will I feel // when I'm healed // and this Spirit is whole // when this warrior's old // and my story is told // will they talk about psychiatrists who said, "Yeah these pills are destructive, // but once you take 'em // no mistaken // you'll be much more productive" // so... // *CHORUS* // VERSE 2: what they say? // "These pills keep the lunacy at bay" // but this lunacy // is lucidly // revealing passageways // to the Heaven and stars // and the great Beyond // to the Hell and Cold // where the Souls // are sold // I wanna know // am I crazy or enlightened? // wary or just frightened? // some say lunacy is finding out what's really going on // like comprehending lyrics you had wrong // all along // just sing along // to this song // is it irrelevant // or is it Heaven sent? // you thinking negative // that's when the devil wins // I show irreverence // for doctors pushing medicine // instead of being medicated // baby I just meditated // and though the Red Pills helped me at first // now that I'm Free // I can See // the path that must be traversed // so... // *CHORUS* // (or is it Heaven sent) // OUTRO: you've got a second chance // you could go home // escape it all // it's just irrelevant // (and I keep running) // from all the medicine // (I'm running, I'm running, running) // from all the medicine // (I'm running, I'm running away) // from all the medicine // medicine
