PROBLEM CHILD

Juveniles won't smile, vials are reckless
Sexless, raceless, souls unrespected
Hooligans and street urchins lurkin'
Doin' hoods and neighborhoods worst person
Razors hit 'em if the pushers are perverse
Butchers cut like cold cuts, the mind works
Wise are weak on the weary and the wicked
Plagues the city streets swell and evil fitted
Man verse man, the haves against have-nots
House a kid for grips, leave him in his socks
Precedence of decadence is put out
Scrambled hands full of merchandise he got out
Took a take and a picture figured strife
Subsisting on the minimal fruits of life
Attitudes are skewed from the right pile
Introduction of a character problem child
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Kids makin' bids cause they're products, so what?
You still get left with a donut
No such luck in the scams that make paper
Skidding off the edge, you're portrayed as a faker
Fakin' the plans like the plans of mice and men
Lands a man a chance at one to ten
But the man ain't old enough to legally drink
And guess what, punk? Your shit still stink
Now you're perp the role, the role of Frank Nitti
He ain't a hero cause he landed on the roof of a Chevy
So play the life of untouchable
The fast life, the wrong life, it's so much bull
The criminal times but time rollin' in reverse
I wanted to be older before I saw a hearse
Take a wafer of my boys who are buckwild
The life and death and times of a problem child
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problems, problems of the prodigal
End up on the page of periodicals, a pinnacle
Mints moving blocks to cellblocks
Under locks and keys, no G's clock
He strays like a pig who don't fly straight
In a pen playin' foul and third rate
Take a step back and meet your maker
See playin' Maytag statistic on paper
Philosophy not of a giver, he's a taker
Later words turn to dust, he's the traitor
Sells you out for a quick fix, dime drops
Got a chip on his shoulder without props
A bad seed leads himself the stray way
Puttin' off evidence of Judgment Day
Judge not the culprit or pull the file
The life and death and times of a problem child
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
I step careful into the next frame
Lame, you're just a stunt playin' a sex game
Eyes start to wink, you think he's on your hot tail?
Frail, you're shallow as you swallow up your bath sale
Tail stickin' out like a bumper to a Maxima
Taxin' a brother for a fee to get sex in a wet bed
Sheddin' your gear like a snake does its skin
Begin to get slim as he's sexin' you in
He moves deeper, asleep is what you thought he was
But he went below, so low you felt and that's because
The minute he got in it violated you and became ill
Treated you just like a flush 'n fill
The next crisis, your eyes is clearin' up your mind
Cause you're playin' life from the CD of your behind
Time to wake up, can't you see that you're robbin' wild?
File this style as another of the problem child
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
Problem that I can't fix
