[Verse 1: Tom MacDonald]
Yeah, I'm a rapper, but I'm losin' my respect for the genre
How many songs about Xanax and alcohol are we droppin'?
How many kids we gonna kill 'fore we admit it's a problem?
Probably stop if it was one of our sons or one of our daughters
We know our demographic is primarily youth
We glorify breakin' the law to children in school
Kids copy what we say and imitate what we do
They'll go to jail for doin' the things you told 'em was cool
We put women in our videos, exploiting their bodies
While little girls around the world grab they phone and they watch it
They need a realistic role model, not just a Barbie
They see strippers and escorts but no lawyers or doctors
Hey hip-hop, what the hell happened?
It was power to the people and we liked that stuff
These days you're promoting that's it's fun to be an addict
So I'm askin', how could y'all write that, bruh?
[Chorus: Tom MacDonald & Dax]
You can blame the rappers that you blow up
But your favorite songs are 'bout doin' drugs
So what happens after these kids grow up?
And who's to blame for who they've become?
They made it look so cool to shoot those guns
And hate the cops and to get too drunk
You can't blame the rappers when you show up
And love the songs that make you dumb
You can't blame the rappers
Yeah, I'm a rapper, but I'm losin' my respect for the genre
How many songs about Xanax and alcohol are we droppin'?
How many kids we gonna kill 'fore we admit it's a problem?
Probably stop if it was one of our sons or one of our daughters
We know our demographic is primarily youth
We glorify breakin' the law to children in school
Kids copy what we say and imitate what we do
They'll go to jail for doin' the things you told 'em was cool
We put women in our videos, exploiting their bodies
While little girls around the world grab they phone and they watch it
They need a realistic role model, not just a Barbie
They see strippers and escorts but no lawyers or doctors
Hey hip-hop, what the hell happened?

You can't blame the rappers when you show up
And love the songs that make you dumb
You can't blame the rappers
