I
have a psychotic condition
And
my life used to be mad,
But
I now have an injection
And
I am happily glad.
I’ve
been hospital free
For
seemingly an eternity,
I
am on the right path
Where
I have a laugh.
I
used to cause a domestic
When
I was insanely sick,
My
family weren’t happy
With
me acting mentally.
I
was harmful to myself
Suffering
this ill-health.
