MC Lars - FDA DOA lyrics
[MC Lars - FDA DOA lyrics]
Fentanyl, opioids, Xanny bars
Glorified by puppets with microphones
Lives erased, profit made, catching souls
FDA DOA, free yourself
Rappers glorify abuse of
Prescription medications
Lil Peep could have still been
Making music I'm just saying
That marketing drives everything
The FDA approved it
Purdue made a billion building addicts
And they knew it
Was deadly, as communities withered
They triggered the endorphins
In our neurotransmitters sold us Oxycontin
Said that it was not addictive
And told us we were weak if
We some how couldn’t quit it it's insane
Did we not learn from Kurt Cobain?
Romanticizing tragedy, again and again
It's complicated
Addiction takes people often
Like Whitney Houston
Juice WRLD and Philip Seymour Hoffman
Fentanyl killed Prince
Mac Miller and Tom Petty
As streaming profit's grow steady
The labels all were ready
And I'm not blaming the artists
When managers enable
Sliding pills as a signing
Bonuses underneath the table
Fentanyl, opioids, Xanny bars
Glorified by puppets with microphones
Lives erased, profit made, catching souls
FDA DOA, free yourself
Fentanyl, opioids, Xanny bars
Glorified by puppets with microphones
Lives erased, profit made, catching souls
FDA DOA, free yourself
When you lock lock up a generation for a year
On their phones as the algorithms
Feed them stress and fear
And curated content that celebrates escape
Mental health starts to fade
They've designed it this way
I've lost family to addiction
I've lost friends to suicide
As they bottle up the product
You can't bottle it inside
Pandemics, epidemics
Can we last another year?
You can finally feel your feelings when
Your mind is free and clear
And when the planet stopped and
The Dow Jones dropped
And the virus hatched and
The drawbridge latched
And the schools all closed and
We worked from home
They bought Roblox stock as
They monitored our phones
And when they cut supply
They increased demand
And now they sell it on the
Streets as market trades hands
And when Narcan is late, we pay all debts
Bringing profit's to the
Prophets cashing checks
Fentanyl, opioids, Xanny bars
Glorified by puppets with microphones
Lives erased, profit made, catching souls
FDA DOA, free yourself
Fentanyl, opioids, Xanny bars
Glorified by puppets with microphones
Lives erased, profit made, catching souls
FDA DOA, free yourself
Rappers glorify abuse of
Prescription medications
Lil Peep could have still been
Making music i'm just saying
That marketing drives everything
The FDA approved it
