V6

Yo... Back in the ends, when we was young yutes... Met this girl called Mary Jane... She changed everything, innit... (Hook) Mary Jane, my first love from the youth days Natural beauty, made the stress fade away We grew up together, through the pain and the rain But now look at her... man's heart's in pain They twisted her up, turned green to pharma game High THC madness, now it's not the same Mary Jane, what they done to your name? From natural herb to this chemical flame (Verse 1) Remember secondary school, 'bout 14 deep Mandem on the block, tryna act all street One day in the park, bro pulled out the green Said "Try this zoot, it'll ease the machine" First pull hit lungs, head spun like a wheel Laughin' with the guys, nothin' felt more real Mary Jane, she was pure, straight from the earth No chems, no seeds, just natural worth Skippin' lessons, chillin' on the estate She calmed the rage when the world showed hate Through the teen years, she was always there Growin' with man, like she really cared Bush weed days, skunk comin' in slow But she was my peace in this cold postcode (Hook) Mary Jane, my first love from the youth days Natural beauty, made the stress fade away We grew up together, through the pain and the rain But now look at her... man's heart's in pain They twisted her up, turned green to pharma game High THC madness, now it's not the same Mary Jane, what they done to your name? From natural herb to this chemical flame (Verse 2) Hit workin' age, needed ps quick fast Clocked in at the local hydro shop at last Sellin' tents, lights, nutes, fans on spin Growers comin' through, tryna stack their wins Watched the genetics flip, crossin' strains like mad Californian imports, UK hybrids bad Breeders in labs, manipulatin' the genes Pumpin' THC levels, 30% plus scenes From landrace pure to these super skunks Pharma companies jumpin', turnin' buds to chunks Mass production, chems in the feed No soil, just hydro, all for the greed Saw it change slow, yutes hittin' whiteys hard Paranoia kickin', mental health scarred What was once medicine, now a dangerous tool Overbred monster, breakin' all the rules (Outro – hook fade with ad-libs) Mary Jane... you was natural once Now they got you laced, for the corporate funds Miss them old days, when you healed the soul Now man's warnin' yutes... don't lose control Free the real green... (R14... diligence...)
