Cold Metal Chair Visualized by OJ Mooney

In that cold metal chair

I felt guilt as I sat in it

I’ve had so many blessings

Compared to the many who share this clinic

 

I felt guilt for being crazy

I should of felt guilt for my shame, of how God made me

I was strong, crazy like a dog in heat

Until I started losing sleep

And popped that pill my co-worker gave me

 

Back it up a second I was always living reckless

A mess but blessed with strong instincts

I can never fear failure I can smell what ya think

 

But in a blink; The doctors got to me

My gifts were disorders

My ADD became Schizoeffective Bi-Polar

But shit it’s who you ask in the eye of the beholder

 

Older, stronger, badder and bolder

A fucking molder I can break up boulders

But back then, that cage finally trapped me…

 

No bars, no chains, no nails, no leather

Just that cold metal chair… and this grey bloom weather
