With the problems the U.S. has with drug use and overdoses, do you think this song should be played on the radio? I get the whole freedom of speech issue, but does a song like this hurt people?

I can see people that are trying to quit heroin starting back up after listening to this. The urge is strong and the will is weak when it comes to heroin.

Does it make it look ok for teens? Everybody's high right? So how bad is it, if everyone is doing it.
