Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Lyrics by Lazareth

End the Stigma II: P.T.S.D.

2019

[Intro]
Do it for the kids who don't know yet
Do it for the coming home war vets
Do it for the stigma we ain't broke yet
Do it for why I gotta write that
Do it for the people like me, who got P.T.S.D
And every single day they breath is a fight for their mind back
[Verse 1]
45 million got P.T.S.D
That's just in America, throw other countries
Into the equation but there still ain't conversations
In the mainstream about how we can spread awareness
Start giving education to the people who do need it
To break down stigmas and get the proper treatment
'Cause it's more than flashbacks that come into your mind
It's a battle that you fight every day of your life
It's more than just vets who can get it
Trauma's everywhere and the effects can set in
Up to 6 months later after it happened
And some people may not even know that they have it
That goes for the kids acting out at a young age
And nobody knows their cause to constantly outrage
Bullied in class, for showing their symptoms
And none of the teachers wanna deal with 'em
'Cause they ain't got the patience to really take time
And understand what's going on in their mind
So when they lash out, blackout, and refuse to back down
That's the only way they know how to survive
Chronic anxiety takes over their body
They're always on edge and ready to fight
Turn the energy to rage when things get started
And scrap ASAP when the pressure is tight
Living with this illness doesn't make you a monster
It just means you're a victim of experienced trauma
It ain't just the fact they can't get over the past
Trauma's overwhelming and runs deeper than that
Recalling the pain can hurt as much as the moment
No wonder they go to great lengths to avoid it
Living with this illness doesn't make you a monster
It just means you're a victim of experienced trauma
