Problem
Stat Quo Lyrics

Where you from? I'm from the A hoe
Asking where you're from and stating that I am from Atlanta

Said I'm out, been bucking on bustas and gettin that pay hoe
Explaining that I have been hustling and making money in Atlanta

Our minds is paid for, hit the blocks like Lego
Mentally prepared for the streets and hustling like building blocks with Legos

Keep their hands on the special
Keeping their hands on their guns

Cause they'll show you what tecs do
They will show you what their weapons can do

Them boys is drama driven, raised by the system
The street life can cause drama and trouble, and many have been raised by the system

Listen, they bust to survive
They resort to using their guns to survive in the streets

Your squad be bustin for recognition
Your group is trying to gain recognition by using guns and violence

Frontin and ass kissin, industury pussy nigga
People in the music industry are fake and kiss up to others

They gankin your batter before it get to the cookie nigga
They are taking your money before you can even make any profit

Them killas live round here, don't bring your ass down here
There are dangerous people living in this area, so don't come here

Niggaz have a tendency to act up and clown here
People have a tendency to act foolishly and cause problems in this area

Tote thangs, no thang, good their ain't no game down here
Carrying guns is normal here, and there is no time for games

Bright white to brown in grand money exchange here
Money is exchanged frequently here, from large to small amounts

You already know what it is playa, a PD can't save ya
You should already know the risks of living here, and the police can't always protect you

Your time's up, flat line, shorty see ya later
Your time is up, and you will die soon

No amount of favors, no amount of paper
No amount of money or favors can save you from death

Can't stop the inevitable death of a hater
No one can stop a hater from being killed

And you don't want problems, bitch nigga believe it
You don't want to start any problems or confrontations

Their hand is on the trigger and they ready to squeeze it
They are prepared to use their guns if necessary

So save all that drama, them boys tote armor
Don't cause any unnecessary drama or issues, as they are always armed

I'll have you laying dead right in front of yo mama
I will kill you and leave your dead body in front of your mother

News is real folk
The news is accurate and reflects the reality of the streets

You don't want to make it on there
You don't want to be featured in a news story

It's dangerous niggaz wan't warfare playa
It is dangerous here, and people are looking for a fight

Ain't no "oops" "I'm sorry" or "my bad" shit
There are no apologies or forgiveness given in this world

Skulls split wide open for some dumbass shit
People will get killed for doing something foolish

Young wipper snapper flappin his lip
A young person talking too much and not respecting the streets

Part of the game is this
This is just how the streets work

They marksmen homes, they don't miss
They are skilled shooters and won't miss their target

Cops come, they don't snitch
They won't give up any information to the police

No witnesses at the crime scene
There are no witnesses to the crimes committed

Just your body leaking at Yao Ming
Your dead body is the only thing left at the scene

When the lights go off pimp, the sharks come out
When it gets dark, the real danger comes out

Thangs bang out, bust till ya brains hang out
Guns are fired until someone is dead

Come to your house, sitting on your porch where ya live
They will come to your house, sit on your porch, and wait for you to come home

Waiting till ya come back to the crib
Waiting for you to come back home

This ain't bout no rap song, it's real life
This is not just about the lyrics of this song, it reflects real life on the streets

Can't nobody tell ya what gettin killed, feel like
No one can describe the feeling of being killed

The trill is trill, the fake is fake
The reality of the streets is true, and those who are fake will eventually fail

And they don't make bulletproof vests for ya face, YEAH!
There is no protection for your face, which is a vulnerable area

[Chorus: x2]
Repeating the chorus twice
