2023 TEENS Lyrics

It's 2023

And teens are popping ecstasy

Inside of high school bathroom stalls and very closely listening

Their homies walking in with domes and weed that pen to them is glistening

They grab it with no hesitation take a hit, they feeling weak

Who knew that Sprite and syrup could be something that was killing teens

The shit that's making headlines is no longer cops and murder scenes

Instead, it's 16-year-olds overdosing on promethazine

They tryna heal a pain inside of them that has been lingering

But all they do instead is end up dead with family wondering

Like how the hell is this, my son, now you got her wondering

If everything she did for you was just a waste of mothering

Addiction is a tragic thing, that shit will have you smothering

Some alcohol or nicotine, your yearly family gathering

Is so much more important than that vape you got from Valerie

Not saying that has happened, hypothetically it's happening

Ur mixing Oxy with some Codeine adding Coke and now ur floating

Psychedelics got you trippin' you can't even seem to cope with

Every single piece of trauma made a wound your left it open

Bleeding out and feeling hopeless

16 years of age and homeless

All the teachers, many coaches

Tried to help you pushed them soulless

Now it's gotten bad

The withdrawals that you had

Are slowly gettin' worse

Your father found ur percs

And grabbed your mother's purse

And beat you till it hurts

You don't have any words

Besides I'm sorry dad

The devils got a curse

It's something that will lurk

Until I'm in the dirt

But that's some bullshit

Its addiction that u won't reverse, I know it's not that easy, but trust me that it will certainly work

But now ur uncertainly flirting with death cause the percodan you possess is taking ahold of your breath

You pass out and slowly descend, then red and blue lights are suddenly in your vision

Your parents panic rush to figure out if the shit u took was laced or what the chance of you surviving is

But by the time you arrive, they pull you out it's to late now

Went up into heaven, December 7th, 2011

So to the younger generation if you contemplating overdosing on your medication

Just remember that just cause your outta pain don't mean that everybody else is going feel the same
