Earth's Medicine

(album: Rain In England - 2010)

Hello Earth, welcome to the doctor's office
You seem very sick
Are you okay?

Let's first stop the wars, close the doors to anything negative
This is the Earth's medicine
Please sit down

To understand why we live where violence is natural
Even though survival is a must
We have to share, understanding that we're not the only ones here
I'm in the office, the world came inside
Many problems, high tides
Hurricane dies, oil for the eyes
People at the core, I have to say it's more in store if you continue
Your forehead is hot, global warming
Brain for the government is shutting down
Red cells is navy, white cells is army
Took the temperature, pretty hot, volcanic
Could erupt at any second
The world lay down, bright and sunny
I'm ready to sedate it
Poke the needle in the water
Slowly the world turned around and became dark
Night time starts

I really hope this world is okay

While the world sits here and sleeps right in front of me
I need to make sure that I can do all in my power to help it

The Earth comes back from a coma
The next day starts
I'm happy to see that it's bright again
I think the world's a woman
Mood swings represents seasons
Autumn is awesome
Summer I wonder
Winter I sing to myself
No thunder imma make sure
Have you been crying lately? The rain pours when you do
You gotta watch out for flooding
Your levee contacts can't hold everything
Plus your lungs look great
The ocean gets deeper everyday
All your sweat and tears saves
Your heart turns to flames
Forest fires, it just be one Earth
You'd have a solid core
Stay strong until you come in to the doctor again
I know your mind's in space
Until then, until the end
Doesn't mean you're depressed, you're just different
Earth

That was crazy seeing the Earth come inside and
You know, for it's yearly checkup
But the Earth seems different
Like it seemed different this time
It's not happy as it used to be
Maybe the people inside the Earth's core
Deep down inside
I remember when we all used to work for the Earth at one point
Everybody in it's core, all the people
Maybe that's why the Earth's sad
I need to write down in my journal and... jot... down the appointment today and everything that happened inside of it
The Earth is a very special... I really don't know what to call it
I know it's something bigger than life

I just wanna help
Maybe love and help
I think those are the two best medications for it
Love, help and peace
All three

20 years of college for this
I went to 20 years of college
And I'm glad I can help the Earth
I got a Master's in life, a Bachelor's in love, a Bachelor's in peace
Now it's time to prescribe the Earth some medication
And don't forget courage

My name's Lil B
And I've been it's doctor for a while
