Medicine

Beauty in the eye of the beholder
I was young, but only gettin' older
Only got a high school diploma
Got a lot of weight up on my shoulders
but I fold up
Took to get over
I was lucky like I found a clover
Was always the opposite of sober
Thinkin' 'bout my life and how things coulda been
If I stayed in school and I ain’t rap
Woulda prolly never traveled, got caught up in the ghetto
Fuckin' with the wrong fellas, get clapped
Police prolly woulda caught me walkin' 'round with the hammer
Throw my ass in the slammer, got stabbed
I try not to get attached to this dollar that I have
I’m so sick, you gon' need a hazmat
Play my cards right but it ain’t Blackjack
Roll the dice lik I’m 'boutta play Craps
I’m too nice, that’s why I don’t take crap
And success is my favorit payback
But I know when you cannot say jack
Hope one day I can get a Maybach
I need cheese like a Monterey Jack
They be lyin' and I’m talkin' straight facts (Fly)
Medicine, medicine
No, I cannot sleep without my medicine
No, I cannot breathe without my medicine
No, I cannot eat without my medicine
Medicine, medicine
No, I cannot eat without my medicine
No, I cannot sleep without my medicine
No, I cannot breathe without my medicine
Medicine, medicine, medicine, medicine
No, I cannot breathe without my medicine
No, I cannot eat without my medicine
Medicine, medicine, medicine, medicine
No, I cannot sleep without my medicine
No, I cannot breathe without my medicine
I’m pillin' enough, no, I don’t need a pill
So much I am brothers that I’ve seen it kill
Some take it on flights and some pop it on drills
Some wanna be numb cause they don’t wanna feel
Who am I to judge 'cause I smoke before meals
I fuck with the ganja 'cause I know it heals
Get my front' from Cali', way up in the hills
My hood filled with crackers that’s still smokin' krill
I can’t jump in 'cause they from the air
Heard 'bout Reaganomics but I wasn’t there
Some brothers made hustlin' to a career
Then they got locked up for the maximum years
These pharmaceuticals all on our TV
These people too greedy, can see they don’t care
But I think freely, won’t take what they feed me
They tryna beat us usin' mental or fear
Medicine, medicine
No, I cannot sleep without my medicine
No, I cannot breathe without my medicine
No, I cannot eat without my medicine
Medicine, medicine
No, I cannot eat without my medicine
No, I cannot sleep without my medicine
No, I cannot breathe without my medicine
