High Times

A cautionary wail

You can’t be high all the time

Many have tried, me too

But it just leads to destruction

Which sounds cool

Till it happens to you

Take an old idiot’s advice

Stay between the lines

Moderation ain’t cool

But it’ll save your life

Don’t live for your own legend

Don’t be the myth of you

Be true to what’s deeper

You got to look after you.
