WE HAVE A PROBLEM

Whatchu mad for?

I had to ask

Look

Why you mad about prostitution

You're buying sushi so she'll suck you off

Soldiers are selling their bodies

Their mothers are crying

They're dying in foreign wars

The president is playing golf

And paying porn stars off

While you go shopping at the mall

Where everything is made abroad

Why you mad about immigration

Corporations commit tax evasion

You working to pay off your bosses yacht

And can't even take a vacation

You thinking that criminals cross at the border

Elected a felon in office

Chase bank credit card

Fund another holocaust

And I think I know the cause

Everything has got a cost

Take a second just pause

I think that we have a problem

And I think I know the cause

Everything has got a cost

Take a second just pause

I think that we have a problem

Why you mad you pay to watch her dance

And don't even care why she on the pole

She be drowning in them student loans

A few years ago made the honor roll

You wanna see a woman naked

Can't bare to see her feed her babies

Ashamed of our bodies

If not being used for men's entertainment

If you do not get it then I'll say it plainly

Money's been messing up all our relationships

Don't take offense

But you want your woman submissive

Stay up in the kitchen

Take care of the kids

But you never listen

She ain't got a pot to piss in

She started selling dirty pictures

It's you who pay for the subscription

Woo woo

But that wasn't part of the plan

We do what we can

We break or we bend

We all got our means to an end

Whippin' it up in the kitchen again

Somehow we sit at the same table

But we can never break bread

I don't think you really understand

We in a prison not the promised land

And I think I know the cause

Everything has got a cost

Take a second just pause

I think that we have a problem

And I think I know the cause

Everything has got a cost

Take a second just pause

I think that we have a problem

Why you mad at someone on the street

That's just needing something to eat

When billionaires don't play fair

Now who's really living off government cheese

Why you mad your new neighbor's black

When you live in a gated community

Cops got they foot on his neck

They taking his life with immunity

Why you mad at how another prays

When all you do is fill your mind with hate

And why you mad at how she make her money

You can't live off of minimum wage

No choice but to participate

You hate the players but I hate the game

I'm getting money but I can't escape

I don't think that we was ever great

And I think I know the cause

Every thing has got a cost

Take a second just pause

I think that we have a problem

And I think I know the cause

Every thing has got a cost

Take a second just pause

I think that we have a problem

Yeah

I think that we have a problem

Yeah

I think that we have a problem

Ye

I think that we have a problem

Yeah

Think we got a problem
