Dear Rappers |
Man it’s easy for these rappers who have it all |
Talk about the days when they used to be sad |
I guess I can’t relate to being famous and wealthy |
I’m 28 and still praying for the day I have a chance |
Maybe y’all can help me out though |
I’m just tryna take care of my household |
I don’t even wanna make my mouth gold |
I just wanna win before the system that I’m in |
Gets a hold of me again and starts to squeeze under my chin |
Until I’m out cold |
Dear rappers can you help me |
I’ll even take a selfie with your album that I bought |
I got every single CD that you ever fuckin' dropped |
I spent everything I had, and I never have a lot |
Oh my God, what a mess |
Your words help me deal with the stress |
Used to contemplate my suicide the nights I was depressed |
Used to pop you in the boom-box and sit up by my desk |
Listen to your music 'til I felt it in my chest, but |
These days it’s like you don’t have nothing left |
Your music feels kinda like you’re tryna write a check |
Everything is digital, I mean no disrespect |
But I’m paying even more, and you give me even less |
What the fuck? |
You taught me to think, you taught me to grow |
You taught me the things to, survive on my own |
But now you teach me to drink, you teach me to smoke |
You teach me to think, «every woman’s a hoe» |
I don’t want your xanax bars |
Or your fancy foreign cars |
Throw your money in my face |
And try to tell me that it’s art |
No, no, no, no, no |
No, no, no, no, no |
Just a drug addict on TV |
I can’t hear another fucking song about abusing medication that I had to take, |
just to stay alive |
There’s more important shit than what you wear and where you live |
And who you fuck and what you drink and what you spend and what you drive |
Rappers full of bullshit |
Rap just a marketing vehicle |
For the product that the man wants you to buy |
Rap about a full clip |
Rappers just promoting different liquors and varieties or ways that you could |
die |
Yeah |
Dear rappers, can you help me? |
Are you almost out of alcohol to sell me? |
Tell me |
Cause drinking every night can’t be the way to getting wealthy |
If I’m really bein' honest all this shit is overwhelming |
I need someone to look up to |
You’re living in a country that elected Donald Trump |
You’re living in a country where police are killing people every day and all |
you wanna talk about is doin' drugs |
You’ve been blinded by the money, you’ve been blinded by the cars |
You’ve been blinded by the women, don’t know who the fuck you are |
Thought I knew you when I spent a hundred dollars on a ticket to your show |
And now I feel like you stole my fuckin' money and I’m broke |
Man you taught us how to rap, and you taught us how to dress |
And you taught us how to act, if we wanted to impress |
Now you’re teaching me to live like I know you never would |
What you’re preaching to these kids is keeping them inside the hood |
I don’t want your xanax bars |
Or your fancy foreign cars |
Throw your money in my face |
And try to tell me that it’s art |
No, no, no, no, no |
No, no, no, no, no |
Just a drug addict on TV |
I don’t want your xanax bars |
Or your fancy foreign cars |
Throw your money in my face |
And try to tell me that it’s art |
No, no, no, no, no |
No, no, no, no, no |
Just a drug addict on TV |
