Poison-into-Medicine

I’ve been down so many times
Know where I’m coming from
Like a ship getting tossed inside a maelstrom
Like a mat at the door worn out my welcome
And I’m tattered and frayed
I been on and off the bottle like it was the teat
Wasting away til I’m all bones no meat
Burnt out and melting down into my seat
I didn't know how the game was played
Now I’m doing revolution want my victory
Emancipate myself from mental slavery
Changing right now it’s an emergency
Got no time left to be afraid
Poison into medicine
Work on my heart again reach out to a friend
Poison into medicine
Got no time to waste I was born to win
Born to win
Born to
Born to win
Born to win
I’m sorry my friend all apologies
Sometimes I feel like I’m my own worst enemy
Disregarded you after you nurtured me
And it makes no sense at all
Drew party lines and mounted my defense
Strung out on anger and on ignorance
Revolted hard against my common sense
And so began the fall
Now it’s many in body but one in mind
No longer being led by the blind
Turns out inner peace ain't really hard to find
But only if you try
Poison into medicine
Work on my heart again reach out to a friend
Poison into medicine
Got no time to waste I was born to win
Born to win
Born to
Born to win
Born to win
