Mental Health

I put the mental in everything
Continental, not a rental, elemental ring
Crazy, crazy born, not lazy, mentally and physically, in some great universal tapestry
Normally, uncannily always smiling
Now just pining, talk about mental signing
Now, things unfold so many wining
Lining
We have all been intertwining
Now unwinding, yet not finding
Only dining, yet I keep trying, flying
Screw it, mental health, mental wealth, this turned into a rant,
Maybe something about mental health I shouldn't even chant
Man, fan off the flames
Giving it oxygen sounds insane
