[Chorus: Drew York]

Every rich white kid's got something to say

Shut the fuck up


[Verse 1: Drew York]

First world problem child

Yo, you lost your way, born on easy street

Never step foot on MLK

Easy living in your position with a white last name

Pre-conditioned to be the villain

Another suburban day


[Chorus: Drew York]

Every rich white kid's got something to say

Shut the fuck up

(First world problem child)

Every rich white kid's got something to say

Shut the fuck up

(First world problem child)


[Verse 2: Drew York]

Fortunate and favored

You spit the same old flavor

You can use a taste of another race

What's it like to be your neighbor?

Knock, knock, coming in hot

We don't need the key, we can break the lock

To your gated house, show the sheltered the real shit

Bring the motherfucking truth out


[Interlude: Drew York]

First world problem child (Child)

Step in their shoes, and walk a mile (Walk a mile)

First world problem child (Child)

Step in their shoes, and walk a mile (Walk a mile)

[Verse 3: Sam Carter]

I'm a surgeon with a switch-blade

I'll cut you, see if you still bleed

You wouldn’t know a problem

'Cause you got everything you need (-Thing you need)

I got iron in my arteries

You got a wall between yourself and reality

[Bridge: Drew York, Drew York & Sam Carter]

Show the sheltered the real shit

Bring the motherfucking truth out

(Bring the motherfucking truth out)

Show the sheltered the real shit

Bring the motherfucking truth out

(Bring the motherfucking truth out)


[Chorus: Drew York]

Every rich white kid’s got something to say

Shut the fuck up
