Method Man

Problem

From 4:21… The Day After2006

Written by Erick Sermon, Ineffie Woods, Method Man

Lyrics

Problem

[Intro]

You don't want no problems, problems

You don't want no problems, problems

Yeah, real man, with ya stinkin' ass

Come on

That's my nigga right there, let's do it

Never count me out, nigga, just count me in

Yeah

[Verse 1]

Look, I ain't came to bone these chicks

Not this time, I got a bone to pick, I got a zone of piff

Now, who that nigga in the zone and shit

Back in the building like he own the bitch, nobody cold as this

If I ain't got it, then it don't exist

I spit that bird flu, my flows is sick, I'm still as ill as they come

Protect Ya Neck, when you dealing with them

Now Erick stick a fork in him, he done, hah

It boggles the mind, like try'nna 'ketchup' to a bottle of Heinz

It's like forensics try'nna follow the crime, they want time

And sometime, a nigga had to swallow them dimes

While 85 percent swallowing swine, see

Wherever he roam, it's all gravy, man, whenever he home

Long as I got myself I'm never alone, feel even better with chrome

If there's a problem, nigga, let it be known

And while I sleep, my bitch be checkin' my phone, 'cause I'm a problem, nigga

[Chorus: Method Man & DMX]

Ease up, or put them g's up

Scream at ya frog, nigga leap up (Now who got a problem with that?)

They need to beast up, nigga, speak up or

Forever hold they peace up (If they got a problem with that)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Believe, what I say, when I tell ya)

Yeah, you, nigga, you don't want no problem with that

[Verse 2]

Look, my Clan all one in the same

Until my name number one in the game, it's not a game, nigga

Like Billy Danze, I be running with Fame

Me and my lynch mob coming to hang, it's Wu-Tang for life

Hard body, another day in the life

Credit his momma now for raising him right, just want the people to know

I'm 'bout to blow, like I'm shaking the dice

Making me mad? Nah, y'all making me right, cause y'all was taking me light

So let my pen talk and say what he like

And have the court system say and indict, I'm O.J.ing the mic

Liquid plumber, I be laying the pipe

And if it's tight, girl, I'm staying tonight

Not only raising the price, on M.C.'ing, but I'm raising the bar

And if you scary, nigga, wait in the car

Motherfuckers I'm hard, hard as cooked up in mayonaise jars

Purple haze, Cuban layed cigars, I'm a problem, nigga

[Chorus: Method Man & DMX]

Ease up, or put them g's up

Scream at ya frog, nigga leap up (Now who got a problem with that?)

They need to beast up, nigga, speak up or

Forever hold they peace up (If they got a problem with that)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Believe, what I say, when I tell ya)

Yeah, you, nigga, you don't want no problem with that

[Verse 3]

E, you know I'm just like that

Big baller nigga, just like Shaq, so come on, niggas

If they bust, I better bust right back

Meth spit it from the guts, like [*Gunshot*], man down

I'm that dude, hands down, stand down

I'm past due, for Cash Rule, y'all can't clown

I'm bank now, your ass lose, nothing but rhyme

New York Times, I'm bad news, and I'm a problem, nigga

[Chorus: Method Man & DMX]

Ease up, or put them g's up

Scream at ya frog, nigga leap up (Now who got a problem with that?)

They need to beast up, nigga, speak up or

Forever hold they peace up (If they got a problem with that)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Believe, what I say, when I tell ya)

Yeah, you, nigga, you don't want no problem with that

Ease up, or put them g's up

Scream at ya frog, nigga leap up (Now who got a problem with that?)

They need to beast up, nigga, speak up or

Forever hold they peace up (If they got a problem with that)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Don't want no problem nigga)

Hey you (Believe, what I say, when I tell ya)

Yeah, you, nigga, you don't want no problem with that
