The Drug Poem by Pete Rivera

Teach me now
To become less stressed
Sedate me now
And give me rest
This drug, this drug!
Has renewed me and made me whole
Now the curses of my loved ones
Will never take their toll

Oh, here I am
And here I will stand
Cuz I admit to no one
That I am a living man!

On a cloud and on a raindrop
Are the colors of a spectrum
The rainbows in my vision
I remember my mind connects them
And they enter my veins
Oh, they enter my veins
And from that moment
My pain, it drains away

Oh, here I am
And here I will stand
Cuz I admit to no one
That I am a living man!

Oh, here I am
And here I will stand
Cuz I admit to no one
That I am a living man!
