Cope
Everybody got vices, everybody got vices
How do you cope?
Everybody got vices, everybody got vices
How do you cope? How do you cope
Take a look around and see the younger generation dying i'm losing hope
They got us all taking medication but i swear the mental health thing ain't a joke
I'll be the first to tell you money don't make us happy but we ain't happy when we broke
We grow this mentality so we can cope
"It is what it is" and "that's just how it goes"
Take a look around and see the younger generation dying i'm losing hope
They got us all taking medication but i swear the mental health thing ain't a joke
I'll be the first to tell you money don't make us happy but we ain't happy when we broke
We grow this mentality so we can cope
"It is what it is" and "that's just how it goes"
I knew a guy with inheritance they injected him with heroin while he was sleep
His friends wanted P
And then went and spent it like fiends
Better watch the company you keep
I know a girl who phones the social
On her friend of over 14 years
When they have beef
And they still speak
Please do not be deceived
These streets cold
Things are not what they seem
Knew a guy who made 100k
Then he spent it all on automatic weapons
Knew a man who had a heart attack and died He saw his son get hacked with a machete
Heard a bunch of young'ns watch a cop get shot
While kicking ball, they was tryna play
I dunno the names of the kids
I just read the front page of the place
Where i grew up and stayed
And it's never gon change
It will always be this way
Same as it was in the day
If you saw you would say
It's been engrained in our brains
From young we been trained not to break
I know a guy that got a girl tatted on him
Then she ratted on him now he's gone
That was a long time ago and i know she don't
Think about him coming home
Take a look around and see the younger generation dying i'm losing hope
They got us all taking medication but i swear the mental health thing ain't a joke
I'll be the first to tell you money don't make us happy but we ain't happy when we broke
We grow this mentality so we can cope
"It is what it is" and "that's just how it goes"
Take a look around and see the younger generation dying i'm losing hope
They got us all taking medication but i swear the mental health thing ain't a joke
I'll be the first to tell you money don't make us happy but we ain't happy when we broke
We grow this mentality so we can cope
"It is what it is" and "that's just how it goes"
I don't mean to try to preach
Its just i believe
Society's gona crumble
If you have anxiety
Then take Quetiapine
It will quietly numb you
Let me not get too political with it
Cus we know they violently fuck you
And i know i wrestle with vices myself so
I try remain silently humble
But i see the drug use in my neighbourhood
And see how we abuse it order to cope
The fucking government tells you
It understands
But the underclass knows it don't
Go try see a doctor bout real trauma
Not have pills knocked down your throat
Try Pregablin next years campaign
See how many still vote
As for story i'm painting
Im not into glorification
I tell em all dont live like me
Would you believe
That we're all in pain
Tryna find peace?
What do you need for you to feel free?
What do you take to not feel?
Generation of inherited trauma
We all gotta try heal
Take a look around and see the younger generation dying i'm losing hope
They got us all taking medication but i swear the mental health thing ain't a joke
I'll be the first to tell you money don't make us happy but we ain't happy when we broke
We grow this mentality so we can cope
"It is what it is" and "that's just how it goes"
Take a look around and see the younger generation dying i'm losing hope
They got us all taking medication but i swear the mental health thing ain't a joke
I'll be the first to tell you money don't make us happy but we ain't happy when we broke
We grow this mentality so we can cope
"It is what it is" and "that's just how it goes"
How do you cope?
Everybody got vices, everybody got vices
How do you cope? How do you cope
Take a look around and see the younger generation dying i'm losing hope
They got us all taking medication but i swear the mental health thing ain't a joke
I'll be the first to tell you money don't make us happy but we ain't happy when we broke
