Medicate

Verse 1
Woke up again two minutes before my alarm
WIth a pain in my neck that shoots down my arm,
Run the shower too long, then put on that fake smile
That I wear as a head out to work for a while

Verse 2
I labor all day, trading my time for that pay
And the pain in my neck is not going away.
The people so kind add to the tension
Need some time alone in another dimension.

(Chorus)
Should I meditate or medicate?
Breathe and stretch at a rhythmic rate
Spark a joint ‘fore it gets too late
Finish the bottle as the night dictates

Verse 3
Did my words last night hit you in the wrong way?
Was my tone too sharp, did I mean what I meant to say?
Staring at your phone without giving me glance…
Is it all in my head, do I need a second chance?

(Chorus)
Should I meditate or medicate?
Breathe and stretch at a rhythmic rate
Spark a joint ‘fore it gets too late
Finish the bottle as the night dictates

Verse 4
Feel like a pretender most of the time.
Self doubt creeps in and commits an awful crime.
Sows seeds that bloom to insecurity.
Need a some friends to find the remedy

(Bridge)
Breathe, smoke, drink
When I’m standing on the brink.
Breathe, smoke, drink
It doesn’t help as much as you’d think.

(Chorus)
Should I meditate or medicate?
Numbing the pain won’t change my fate.
Spark a joint ‘fore it gets too late
Finish the bottle…
