The Drug of the 21st Century

Its that genre that will bring you to tears 

Its that one tune that will make your emotions do a full 1 80 on you today 

Its that melody that will change your thoughts on your daily issue

Its that continuous beat that will make you dance likes its no tomorrow

Its that lyric that will summarize your whole life story 

Its that voice that will make you heart swell

Its that artist that knows exactly how to capture your heart

Its that one song that you hear on the car radio that will make you sing as loud as your possibly can 

 

Have you tried going one day without it ?

You have ? Isn’t it painful?

Its an addictive drug to us 

You may not know when or how you got hooked 

 But now there is no going back 

 

It will put  you on cloud nine whether you like it or not 

This drug will soothe you from the stressful day that you’ve  been having 

This drug may cause a rush of memories from the past

This drug will make your mind wander

Its the drug that you can’t  live without

 

Wether its indie ,rock,pop,or pure orchestra  they all serve the same purpose 

The purpose of comfort 

Its always there for your deepest falls and highest rises 

In some cases its been the light to your dark tunnel

 

We been exposed to it since birth 

It has been with you since baby years,childhood years,teenage years, and adult years

You’ve grown up to be addicted to this drug 

You’ve just never have noticed it 

Until Now 

There is no cure for this addiction

It has become our salvation to live on

 

Music is the drug of the 21st century
