In the near future, Cannabis is synthesized into a miracle cure for many human ailments; cancer, AIDS, dementia, Alzheimer's, etc., but also general wellness, as it is added to most foods.
As the death rate reduces drastically, overpopulation has created crisis level events around the globe.
Off-planet agricultural facilities were created by the hundreds to grow the life saving commodity. The Completely automated growing facility only takes a small number of workers to run the entire system. And with the size of the vessels, most workers can go for years without having in person contact together.
Such a thankless, lonely long term job contract that most never end up returning. Insanity. Heart attacks. Overdoses. Suicides mostly. Occasionally they give deals to Death Row inmates instead of execution, but most just choose lethal injection.
Loners. Agoraphobes. Angry. Pissed off. Fed up with it all. "Who needs it, let 'em all burn."
Society looks down on these outcast workers and calls them, "Pot Farmers".
And they're happy to be rid of them.
lyrics
POT FARMER:
come back
I'm done
done doing things for fun
we can stare into the sun
we can stare into the sun
I left it all behind
to be a pot farmer
we can stare into the sun
we could swim the ocean waves
we could kill the chosen one
we could hide the ancient caves
I left it all behind
to be a pot farmer
i don't think you truly understand
when it comes to the boogeyman
come back

Kickin Ass is one of the coolest fckn songs I ever heard. I wish there was an extended version. The remixes are not nearly as cool as the original. PIG nailed that old school 80s industrial throwback vibe. Makes me think of like Pailhead or Ministry or Paula Abdul xD
Totally Awesome Album full of sick songs. Seed of Evil.. Oh mann so good miche11edanie11e
