In this world of ours, there is no shortage of difficult issues. From poverty to war to an unfair class structure, there are too many troubling problems facing society today. And sadly, many young people just don’t care. Sure, they pretend to be interested in the issues, but when it comes time to take action, they simply turn away and keep a blind eye to the important topic at hand.

Fortunately, there is a way to reach the youth of the world. Yes, one method of communication has proven highly effective when it comes to reaching out and inspiring young people the world over.

And that, my friends, is rap music.

Young people are the future, and if we’re going to improve this planet of ours then we need the youth to be involved. In an effort to inspire, motivate, and solve all of the world’s most troubling issues, I have decided to get young people involved the only way I know how: By creating hot new rap lyrics.

This time we’ll tackle one of the world’s most pressing current issues…

High Gas Prices.

Hopefully the following made-up rap song will give you kids a new perspective and solve this issue once and for all.

“F**k Gas Prices (F**k ‘em Real Good)”
by Yung Teezy

Every day I wake up and go ridin’ in my Hummer
I pass the gas station, can’t believe them fuckin’ numbers
$3.85, four dollas, $4.50 shawty
That’s a whole lotta money that I can’t spend on Bacardi
What’s a playa s’posed to do? How’s a real thug s’posed to shoot?
When an AK-47 cost less than the commute
To the gun store, where the prices always getting higher
You see them gas prices, they’s affectin’ the suppliers
To keep those trucks on the road, I’m paying extra tax on groceries
You expect me to cut back on Cristal, naw that ain’t cool B
So I stopped buying Magnums just to save a little income
Now I got 7 new mouths to feed, aww shit, son

Man fuck them gas prices
(Yeah fuck them real good!)
Man, fuck them gas prices
(Yeah fuck them real good!)
Man, fuck gas prices
Yeah fuck ‘em!!

So I complained and complained, but then I realized
Gotta shut my diamond-encrusted mouth and open my eyes
Gotta walk more, carpool, find a better way
Gotta consume less petroleum and way more Alizé
Gotta drive less, ride a bike, go out for less dinners
Gotta buy a Hybrid Escalade with some fly-ass spinners
Let’s improve our global standing, let’s stop acting like snitches
Let’s break our dependence on foreign oil and depend on foreign bitches
If we don’t make some changes, our money gon’ be dead
I’m-a save myself some coin by fucking ho’s on a moped
And with all these extra dollas in my pocket that keep forming
I’m-a make it rain, gonna stop global warming
We all gotta make changes, let’s all reach for the stars
Don’t want my 42 kids growin’ up in a world without cars
Let’s reject this agenda Exxon Mobil be sellin’
Let’s keep on ballin’ while we keep on yellin’…

Man fuck them gas prices
(Yeah fuck them real good!)
Man, fuck them gas prices
(Yeah fuck them real good!)
Man, fuck gas prices
Yeah fuck ‘em!!

Uhh, yeah, man, $4.08, $3.95, uhh, $4.12 up in this piece, shout out to my man corn oil, yeah, yeah, fuck them gas prices, uhh, all night long baby
