Problems

How can you tell when a habit's formin?
Well I kept gettin' keelhauled by Captain Morgan
Then I fell down a hole into Looney Tune land like Michael Jordan
But that isn't even half the story
I had a kick me sign on my back for a long time
And that's why they would look at me and say
"Look at the way you're dressed, you're fuckin' askin' for it"
And I got more issues than playboy
Talkin' fully nude all up on the front page
Oy
Swingin' are my moods, I be lettin' out the rage
Oy
Sometimes it's like I need my handheld like a Gameboy
I can feel the wind upon my face
I know nothing's gonna change if I keep makin' the same choices
I dunno what's makin' me so drained
But I'm gonna go insane if I keep my caged voice in
This is not a goddamn drill
I'm about to spill the beans and that means that it's fire at will
Don't tell me to chill
I'm sick of livin' life on the grill
What?
You think I'm just gonna swallow it like a whale does a colony of krill?
Get real
I've been told my whole life to just sit still
And if it was that easy, then I'd be peachy
But I got a disease that keeps me from the killing of these Problems

I know you got'm 'cuz I got'm
And those of us who walk tallest always got
Problems
You gotta get'm resolved 'cuz if you don't then they evolve
And you cause a lotta problems
And if you look around, people ain't walkin' out on people
They be walkin' out on problems
The reason behind it is they keep it inside and never wanna talk about their problems
Talk about their-talk about their problems
Never wanna talk about their problems
Talk about their-talk about their problems
Talk about
They never wanna talk

How can you tell when you're in too deep?
You plead willful ignorance and the issues keep piling high
So it's no surprise the news leaked
Have you heard the words you speak when you sleep?
Some peoples' kids are mischief magnets
Face the facts and then get in the basket
Case in point, you're poison for yourself
Ignore your health and go and live a disaster
You've only chosen to totally blow it over and over
So I know you'll be good to go at a moment's notice
'Cuz if your boat is floatin' too long
You start pokin' it
Homie, it's showin' and everybody be noticin'
Uh
If it ain't broke, then why you playin around?
You finna sink your ship and fly your plane into the ground
If you scratch chalkboards and complain about the way that it sounds
Then you should be blamin' yourself for all of your problems

I know you got'm cuz I got'm
The only thing we got in common is we got
Problems
And if I'm being honest, I can't take pity on you
If you're the cause of all your problems
And if you look around, people ain't walkin' out on people
They be walkin' out on problems
The reason behind it is they keep it inside and never wanna talk about their problems
Talk about their-talk about their problems
Never wanna talk about their problems
Talk about their-talk about their problems
Talk about
They never wanna talk

How can you tell when you're ready to cave?
Remember the day
Lookin' at what you never became
You were motivated to go but then it steadily faded
All the energy left you with a heavy sedation
When your will is breakin' no effort is made
Swing untaken, never stepped to the plate
But the elephant in the place you'll eventually face
Until then, let the memory play
A mental display of better days
Together with hypotheticals
I would like to venture out of a life forgettable
But the inevitable is something I reject
And I'll regret it if I don't make my time incredible
Every night I feel the bite of what my head is assemblin
Asked god to help me, he sent the devil
And so it's up, and if the dust never settles
I may never make it better
Make a destiny of generating problems

I know you got'm 'cuz I got'm
Everyone from the top to the bottom has got problems
It doesn't matter what you call it
Because it's probably your fault you got problems
And if you look around, people ain't walkin' out on people
They be walkin' out on problems
The reason behind it is they keep it inside and never wanna talk about their problems
Talk about their-talk about their problems
Never wanna talk about their problems
Talk about their-talk about their problems
Talk about
They never wanna talk
