DMC LYRICS - What's Wrong

"What's Wrong"

(feat. Napolean (Outlawz))



[scratched: "DMC"]



[Chorus: singers - repeat 4X]

What's wrong with this world today (what's wrong with this world)



[DMC]

Check it out now

12 years old and I'm smokin on weed

I want a lot of stuff that I don't really need

14 years old and I'm drinkin on beer

What my parents gotta say I don't wanna hear

16 years old and I'm takin ecstasy

Girl next to me is gonna have sex with me

18 years old and I'm sniffin cocaine

Don't really care what it's doin to my brain



[singers]

Don't understand, why all the fuss

Why the grown-ups keep messin with us

I'm not gonna die just because I smoked dust

Smack me in the face just because I said a cuss

Treat 'em like kids, we should leave them alone

But they don't understand (I'm 12 and I'm grown)



[Chorus]



[Napolean]

At the age of 12 I was probably sellin weed

Seein the same things that DMC seen

Was a young cat that'd love to see you bleed

But what's goin on with this world tell me

Kids in the street eatin meals off the streets

Take me off the streets but can't stop the streets

At the age of 3 they got shot right in front of me

My moms and my daddy, shoulda never had me

16 years old my balls got swoll

Heart got cold and them glocks got load

Take it back to 15, pops was on the scene

Took me out the hood, showed me how to stack cream

Take it back to my breddern, age 11

Khadafi, the head brother, of Makaveli

Wasn't for you, the streets woulda failed me

Napolean, Outlaw, give 'em hell DMC



[Chorus]



[DMC]

Check it out

Today is the day that I bring a gun to school

The teacher dissed me and he played me for a fool

Tryin to play the role, tryin to be cool

Being {?} well I make the rules



[Napolean]

If I pull the trigger, I figure if he die

I say that I'm crazy, you know that's a lie



[DMC]

Just gotta act like I'm out of my mind

To be on the news, on the cover of Time



[Napolean]

Shoulda known I would do it, shoulda seen the signs

Been lovin guns ever since I was 9



[DMC] I played PlayStation

[Nap] And Nintendo too

[DMC] And love all the games

[Nap] When I'm shootin at you

[DMC] When my dad was young he used to go out and hunt

[Nap] It doesn't really matter man, I came to front



[both]

It doesn't really matter as a kid or a man

Cause the same thing can happen with a gun in your hand



[Chorus]



[ad libbed scratches to end]
