Sixteen Doses of Fentanyl

It pains me now to have to say
That when I read the news today,
I struggle not to feel depressed and empty.
So toss it to me, history
Of just how good it used to be.
This battle ground was once the land of plenty.

It pains me now to have to say
That I can't live on what they pay.
Sometimes, I buy my meds, and I don't eat.
So toss it to me, let's begin
With sixteen boxes of insulin,
And I'll describe a life that once was sweet.

Where do you go when the sun is sinking low
On all that shit they taught you as a kid?
Freedom and democracy,
And equal opportunity-
These hollow words mean nothing like they did.

Where do you go when the sun is sinking low,
And everything you treasure disappears?
When neighbors become enemies,
Ignoring all civilities,
Your legacy becomes a trail of tears.

It pains me now to have to say
That my America went away,
Replaced now with this goddamn shithole country.
So toss it to me, over the wall,
Sixteen doses of fentanyl,
And I will eat them
Til I don't have any.

Where do you go when the sun is sinking low
On every happy thing you ever knew?
So toss it to me, hear my call
For sixteen doses of fentanyl,
And maybe I will save a dose for you.
