Dodged a bullet

How did they do it again?
I have been saved by these angels all around me
Those waiting on the edge of their seats and their souls
For me to come back around
I swear, and promise to all of you that I am constantly searching in me for that which will deem me a better man than I am
I have so much feeling
I feel and experience this world with an incredible intensity
That in my youth have not been able to control
But here, in this glorious day of gratitude and humility
I stand one step closer to being the man that I need me to be
That y'all need and want for me to be
In order to yield the sword, the pen, that will bring Owen back to me
I can hardly imagine, can hardly swallow what it may have cost anyone and everyone
To bring me back to safety again
I'm sorry. I love you
Thank you for getting me back on my feet again
I'm so close this time around. I will win. I've already won being born of such an amazingly passionate and loving family
I'm forever in everyone's debt.

Inevitably a Stoner

When I pack a bowl
I wanna pack it to the top
When there is none left, I wanna stop
I don't want it to be illegal
Wanna buy it in a shop
Change the laws to not be messed with by the cops
When will Reefer Madness propaganda stop?
It is and isn't the miracle drug
Open your arms, America
Please give cannabis an empirical hug
It's political snare is a trap swept under the rug
It's only a little nug
Gateway drug, you say?
Would it really be terrible to legalize it one day?
They already have legal heroine on the market
Ruining and killing Americans constantly
How was Oxycontin approved?
What asshole made that move?
How do I sway American politicians to get into this groove?
Take my hand
We can drive this one home in twos
It will never be legal to take a burn cruize
Do I need to pull publicity stunts on the news?
Do I need to sing the blues
For the incarcerated, non-violent drug criminals?
I feel that the widespread opposition to such a thing is subliminal
We are paranoid because it's illegal
As far as mood stabilizer, mild pain killer, and general pacifier
There is no equal
Abilify, Advil, Xzanex
You're all evil
Marihuana is your prequel
As well as your sequel
PUFMM and NORML
Make yourself look formal so that you will be taken seriously
Don't wave your finger around deliriously
Can you hear me?
Open your eyes
Fry the lies in the public eye
Hippies cry, while justice dies
Every day it remains illegal
I wish to use at my own discretion
I trust my own ability to use not abuse
It would be my own fault if used until obsession
This is a stonerific confession
In a very special way, to me, it was a blessing
But there are so many barriers I must break for the opposition to hear
How many years before we slay their fear?
This argument is so queer
No more deer in headlights
Sharpen your eyes, until the page ignites
Set a blaze the entire country
If we are the pinnacle of all the world
We can not simply twirl this one around fingers
Middle fingers, crazy singers, and grass roots bands
Raise hands, and vote Medical and recreational use onto ballots
Supersede the religious zealots
Any way that you can
Even if you willingly choose to live in a van
Make your stand, and band together
Whether they understand or not
We still got a shot
All rise for Judge Biased 
Take your seat
