health
I remember walking through grocery stores,
Begging mom and dad "please just more and more".
I got what I wanted with my sympathies,
Little did I know, money didn't grow off trees.
It's pretty obvious you'e brainwashed when I stare at ya,
Hypnotized and seduced by corporate America.
But wait a minute, whats in this stuff anyways ?
Processed & concentrated? Nah, let's have a healthy day.
I'm so tired of these unhealthy alternatives,
That we've so comfortably begun to force feed ourselves.
If there's a good deal, wow, you'd probably wet yourself,
I can't imagine what will happen when there's empty shelves.
It's all synthetic ingredients or high fructose corn,
Syrup you eat with pancakes, now your health is forlorn.
The first generation predicted to die before parents,
So does it work backwards with the knowledge they inherit?
When soda can burn acid off a car battery,
And ramen noodles stay in your sytem for eternity.
Obesity and heart attacks AKA the new death sentence,
When food's worse than drugs I guess goodbye and good riddance.
Genetically modified organisms are what we're ingesting,
The FDA could obviously run some improved testing.
At least to gain some of our life span back,
I'd rather grow a farm than eat McDonald's, the food version of crack.
We're so acquitted to this habit of 'saving things',
Like paper money, so these coupons mean everything.
But is buying bulk of these items really worth it?
Too cheap to buy organic, but your body deserves it.
These companies & superstores are trained puppeteers,
To build a fortress of illusions, yes it works every year.
They gain millions at least in total revenue,
Yet, there's no donations to homeless, so there's a clue.
And when somebody dies, we all ask "wait, what? who & how ?
Did this ever occur, every time we turn around.
Now so & so's dead , I thought they were healthy?
Well open your eyes, their body's finally resting.
