Constitution

Any medical professional will tell you that 90% of a cure is human interaction
Doctors know that there is a psychological healing process to an illness reaction
The body within itself, is a self healing, self processing machine
If you're entered into a hospital, all that they do is just digestively clean

A few chemicals to cause the body to react the opposite of the illness
Or just clean out those intestines and allow the body time to heal itself
Take all readings down to zero and then allow the body to recalibrate
Placed on an IV drip and a patient will swear that he's already ate
\
Every doctor and nurse wants to know if and what time did you poo
You haven't eaten since your arrival but they're still concern with what's in you
They want to know how many movements a day, they may even want to see it
When they're finally satisfied with your poo, they will move you from the IC Unit

Now in a regular room among the masses, there's tons of jello just for the asking
Meals are a long time coming and they aren't lasting
Carts lining the halls and all of the plates smell exactly like the same thing
There a dietary plate that smells just like a cheeseburger and onion rings

A few days eating in here and your strength will certain return
You will leave this place with so much haste that your tires may burn
It's not the dire for family that pulls you away, but fast food is what you now yearn
After toeing the line, living on the brink, a lesson by you still wasn't learned

A triple not a double cheeseburger combined with a king sized fries
A large order of mozzarella sticks and a large chocolate milkshake on the side
There's nothing in your system and you feel just fine
Wolfing this food down and getting into bed is all that's on your mind

The doctors knew it before you was even released
Certain patients with certain illness will never cease
There's a reason that the hospital has those revolving doors
They're for patients with weak constitutions such as yours
