What the Problem Is Lyrics

Good looking on a light nigga?(Yeaheah)
Mhhhhhuuuuh uuuhuuhuuhuuuh oohooohooh man
Big Hollis this that shit right there man
Nigga need to smoke one in this motherfucker man
Check it out this shit went down

5 in the morning police at my do' (Police at my do')
Timberlands run across the hall wood flo'
Dipped inside the alley to make my escape
Didn't even get a chance to grab my 2Pac tape
There's always something in the city of dreams (City of dreams)
Young hustlers said bust it just as hungry as me
Got some niggas out in Jersey loving the bang (Loving the bang)
And my niggas out in L.A. they love the same thang (Theylove the same thang)
Cleveland to Atlanta Sacramento to A-Town
We all Outlaws and the streets is our playground (Our playground)
Bang on the waistline hang just to waste time
Money I'm a make mine respect I'm a take mine
Can't take nothin’ from me so they wanna take something from me
Either my life or my money or one of the homies
Ain't nothin’ funny 'bout death there's so sequel
A cold cold World with a few good people left

I wake up early in the morning every day I'm thinking hustle
But that's not what on your mind what's the problem is?
Walk out the do' go to the sto' I see two niggas finna fight
And now I'm thinking to myself what the problem is?
We tryna come up out the gutter they keep holding us down
And the question still remain what the problem is?
Is it me? Is it you? Is it us as a group?
If it is then help me figure out the problem then
It's a little bit safer during the day when the kids is out to play
When them street lights come on they better be taking they ass home
We do our dirt up under the Sunlight but the moonlight is dimmer
January down to December through the spring fall and winter
You learn to survive in the ghetto better break than get took
Selling that yayo on the corner nigga better break or get booked
Look po-po is on that ass (Ass) and them jackals is on that ass (Ass)
Them crackheads they make the laws but it's the niggas you got to blast
They so cutthroat they sheisty one-eighty-seven the lesson
The niggas that's fronting they might be
The only way a nigga make it out the ghetto and that's real
Combat on contact nigga kill or be killed swear fo' God
Thug Life is serious my heart is near and dear to this
So many pause to understand this I wanna smoke the cannibus
I can't forget the hood they represent my struggle right
Money women power respect that's just a soldier's life

I wake up early in the morning every day I'm thinking hustle
But that's not what on your mind what's the problem is?
Walk out the do' go to the sto' I see two niggas finna fight
And now I'm thinking to myself what the problem is?
We tryna come up out the gutter they keep holding us down
And the question still remain what the problem is?
Is it me? Is it you? Is it us as a group?
If it is then help me figure out the problem then
Cigarettes and this drank and this dank
They keep my mind at ease what the problem is?
So I smoke and I choke on the hopes
To keep my mind at ease what the problem is?

Cigarettes and this drank and this dank
They keep my mind at ease what the problem is?
So I smoke and I choke on the hopes
To keep my mind at ease what the problem is?

Get that money what's the problem?
(Get that money get that money)

Yeah we riding Caddy coupes stacking like it's Mercedes Benz
Malibu's and heavy Chevy's every day I'm stacking ends
Some niggas turn crumbs to bricks while other niggas they fumble with it
Make it out start a business while other niggas they crumble with it
Need work? Well come and get it best believe that I got mine
I'm a represent for the O.G.'s and the hustlers that got time
City sets to the penitentiary from one jungle to the next jungle
The lab breed beast and I'm always ready to rumble!

I wake up early in the morning every day I'm thinking hustle
But that's not what on your mind what's the problem is?
Walk out the do' go to the sto' I see two niggas finna fight
And now I'm thinking to myself what the problem is?
We tryna come up out the gutter they keep holding us down
And the question still remain what the problem is?
Is it me? Is it you? Is it us as a group?
If it is then help me figure out the problem then
Cigarettes and this drank and this dank
They keep my mind at ease what the problem is?
So I smoke and I choke on the hopes
To keep my mind at ease what the problem is?

Cigarettes and this drank and this dank
They keep my mind at ease what the problem is?
So I smoke and I choke on the hopes
To keep my mind at ease what the problem is?
