Dope Sick

   
   
I didn't know it was possible    
to withdraw from psych meds    
I've been feeling hellish lately    
stomach doing double flips    
body aches, cold sweats, skin crawling    
been hurt    
   
my mind hasn't been on point either    
played some mean tricks on me    
paranoia, manic fits    
   
today I see the doc    
to see which one is the culprit    
   
I've taken them as I'm supposed to    
so I wonder why the withdraw?    
is it because I'm so manic    
or am I manic for lack of meds?    
   
my system seems to eat them up    
not enough left for me to coast on as normal    
   
hell if i'd known    
they were going to do this    
I wouldn't have taken them    
I've spent many years    
withdrawing off something    
docs knew it    
when I kicked methadone    
in the psych ward    
yet they gave me these pills    
   
& I took them without question    
cos I just wanted a damn cigarette
