Hate the Way - Higher State, EMC, Hermitofthewoods

Hate the way you make me feel

Hate the way you make me feel

Hate the way you make me feel

Hate the way you make me feel

Hate the way you make me feel

This cost is real, astronomical

I can’t stop these pills, I can’t stop the bills

Can’t stop the sick, its impossible

See, I’m iller then salmonella for dinner

Corroding in sickness, my body’s a prison

Rap about drug addiction?

I need my pills for fucking existence

All this misery, making them rich

But they got free samples to hook the sick

My auto immune on self destruct

There is no cure, slow it down with drugs

I have shakes and pains as I waste away

Ulcers inflame till my heart palpitates

Shit blood till i emaciate

Or I can take 2 pills 4 times a day

I got pills in the morning, pills with food†

Pills in the night and afternoon

No drug plan, hundreds a month

If I’m too sick to work, my life is fucked

If home was some of the places I write

Id be a memory waiting for light

Pharma slave prescription servant working for pill for life

Do you greedy people worship the evil

Or the wilted demon Milton Friedman?

Getting rich off the sick and diseases

Meds out of reach for the worst off who need them

Heres a business plan.

Eat some Ativan and get inside the company van

That was parked on the dock at the edge of the land

Pop a hundred milligrams of Diazepam

Wash it down with a Faxe 10 can

Drive that thing just as fast as you can

As the water creeps up and you’re heavy as sand

Get swallowed by the panic so close to land

While the needy just watch, no helping hands

Cause the worlds worse off, never stood a chance

Set the costs sky high cause you knew the demand

But you’d use compassion to market your brand?

Fuck off

Hate the way you make me feel

Hate the way you make me feel

Hate the way you make me feel

Hate the way you make me feel

I hate the way you make me feel

Like nothing’s real but overkill

Muffled rage, a tiger in a cage

Trying to break free when you know there’s no way

No light of day, cold on the mountains

Hide away, increase the amounts and hope for the best

Try to get some rest while you’re running from the stress

Pills are expensive, weed costs less

It’s basic math, you know the rest

Face arrest, depression’s worse

Some days I care so much it hurts

I’ll take whatever gets me through the day

And maybe it’s true that it’s a huge mistake

But it’s the move I make but I do what I need to

I’ve got dreams and a plan to see through

Something in my brain needs disruption

The price is a pain but I need to function

So I make do.

So does E, and so do you

Coffee and cigarettes, dabs and Wellbutrin

Course through my system, human pollution

Pharmaceutical solution

Kick the holistics, Keep it moving

So I can be myself

Over the counter or something else

It’s all about health, see, and I am not the healthiest

It’s all about wealth, too, and I am not the wealthiest

Melting on nails and lining up pills

Space out when I take em trying to save a few bills

Maybe I’ll get better if I skip a few meals

Get a little something in me just to numb the feels

Shit gets real and life just happens

Trapped in the grasp of electric crackling

I need to get grounded — better than I’ve ever been

But I’ve gotta scrounge just to get my daily medicine

So, maybe it’s prescription, maybe it’s a pass

Maybe it’s whiskey, maybe it’s grass

Gotta have something, and that’s the deal

And I hate the way that makes me feel
