as they hung you from trees in your backyard
They thought it was cool to leave you thirsty and stranded,
Katrina!
He thought it was cool to carry a gun in his classroom and open fire,
Virginia Tech, Columbine
Stop the violence!
They thought it was cool to tare down the projects and put up million dollar condos, Gentrification
They think it's cool to stand on the block hiding product in their socks
to make quick dime bag dollars
They think it's cool to ride down on you in blue and white unmarked cars
busting you upside your head
Freeze...
'Cause the problem is we think it's cool too Check your ingredients before you overdose,
on The Cool..."
