Cannabilization

Money had is not money earned,

Money used is not happiness gained.

 

Money gained means money lost.

A business brands you with their label, 

money you've lost is money they've gained. 

 

A business that supplies must meet a demand.

My demand is for your business to supply 

no abuse to me, or her, or him.

 

A business that makes money is set 

to the norm of cannabilization. Though illegal,

it's more so frowned upon than reacted upon.

In order for one to succeed, another must fail.

This is not the world I live in. 

This is not the industry I work for.

 

A lucrative business that supplies all but demands none,

these are the businesses on the run. 

 

A business that demands is a business that takes,

a business that takes is a poison.

This is not the world I live in.
