this track opens the record with lyrics on the deteriorating health of youth in our society, especially where many are addicted and look to drugs for the exhilaration of life. the slightly eerie tremelo vocals and hard hitting natural drum kit make this opener track very solemn yet catchy.
lyrics
health issues
verse 1:
i got a friend who says that he smokes everyday
i told him your 15 no way
always speak truth and mean what you say
he said so many’s left and he doesn’t wanna stay
oh
2021 wasn’t a good year for me
oh
there’s people still high of the ecstasy
pre-chorus:
but imma keep my head up high
blood stained clothes but my hands to the sky
i failed once but that ain’t stop me tryin
taking what you want but you’re never asking why
some people pop a pill for a feeling
i don’t relate
what’s the point of it leaving
your system again?
hook:
health issues
got me stuck in my bed
didn’t read what you said
sorry
health issues
got me stuck in my bed
didn’t read what you said
sorry
verse 2:
guess i really wanna talk that talk
but you don’t wanna stay too long
tryna stop the cigarette from falling out of your pocket again
you can tell me whatever is on your mind
services cost less than a nickel and a dime
we gotta wait for a minute it’s a long time
health issues a problem you don’t like
and i don’t mind
hook:
health issues
got me stuck in my bed
didn’t read what you said
sorry
health issues
got me stuck in my bed
didn’t read what you said
sorry not sorry
