They say I'm running from reality

But they don't know my reality

Their brain got serotonin flowing free

Mine's a fuckin' drought, a scarcity

They drink to forget, I smoke to remember

Who I am beneath the chaos and the pressure

Neurodivergent, different wiring

What calms me down got them perspiring

You see a demon in the mirror

I see God looking clearer

Same plant, different brain chemistry

What's your poison is my remedy

Different chemistry, different needs

You take your pills, I take my edibles

You numb yourself to feel less

I expand myself to feel everything

We're not the same

Don't project your shame

Alcohol sedates the self

Stimulants make you someone else

Cannabis just amplifies

What's already deep inside

So when you say you hate the high

What you really hate is

Being alone with your mind

I learned to love that silence

You see a demon in the mirror

I see God looking clearer

Same plant, different brain chemistry

What's your poison is my remedy

Different chemistry, different needs

You take your pills, I take my edibles

You numb yourself to feel less

I expand myself to feel everything

We're not the same

Don't project your shame

I'm not saying I'm better

I'm saying we're different

You need escape, I need excavation

You need forgetting, I need revelation

Different chemistry, different needs

Your medicine ain't mine

My sacrament ain't yours

And that's fine

Just stop projecting what you fear

Onto what brings me near

To myself, to my God

To the truth in the fog

To the truth in the fog

Truth in the fog
