[VERSE 1 — Third Person Prophet]
Scott Gottlieb ran the FDA from May 2017
Left April 2019 — three months later — Pfizer board
Six figures annually — thousands of shares —
The regulator became the regulated — the door revolved — and roared
Stephen Hahn led the FDA through the pandemic emergency
Authorized Moderna's vaccine — December 2020
Six months later — Flagship Pioneering — chief medical officer
Flagship founded Moderna — holds twenty million shares — the seamless seam
Mark McClellan — FDA commissioner under Bush —
Sat on Johnson and Johnson's board since 2013
All three — all FDA commissioners — all employed
By the three companies whose vaccines they had authorized — the pattern — the scheme
The wine they were sworn to test for safety
Was turned to blood before it left the barrel
The regulator became the investment
The public health authority became a financial variable
[PRE-CHORUS]
Zagan turns the wise into fools
And the fools into the wise
The commissioner who protected you
Is now on the board that decides your price
[CHORUS — Veritas Vox as Vessel]
Zagan pours the wine and watches the color change
The king who fools the wise has learned the regulatory game
Gottlieb — Pfizer — Hahn — Flagship — McClellan — J&J —
Three commissioners — three companies — three board seats — one name
The Sacklers knew OxyContin was addictive — knew it early —
Filed the patent — marketed aggressively — paid the doctors — made the claim
Zagan turned the medicine into the weapon
And turned the weapon's makers into the ones who bear no blame
[VERSE 2 — Direct / Named]
Purdue Pharma introduced OxyContin in 1996
The FDA reviewer opposed the approval — was overruled
The label said the extended release reduced addiction potential
The claim was not proven — it was inserted — the public was schooled
By 2023 fatal opioid overdoses had risen
From twenty-one thousand in 2013 to eighty-one thousand
A two hundred seventy-two percent increase in a decade
While the Sackler family extracted ten billion from the wound
The settlement: seven point four billion — final — 2025
As of that settlement the family's net worth — ten point eight billion
They paid seven point four — retained three point four —
The math of the accountability — the Archon's version of contrition
The FDA that approved it employed its commissioners
Into the boards of the companies it regulated
Trump's FDA commissioner — Biden's FDA commissioner —
Bush's FDA commissioner — the bipartisan revolving door —erated
[PRE-CHORUS]
This is not regulation
This is not protection
This is the Kenoma
Approving its own infection
[CHORUS]
Zagan pours the wine and names the blood for what it is
Eighty-one thousand dead in a single year — the overdose toll
The Sackler family retained three point four billion after settlement
The FDA commissioner retired to the Pfizer board — the revolving toll
Gottlieb — Hahn — McClellan — bipartisan — all three
The regulatory capture so complete it became the job description
Zagan does not invent
