Young Boy Problems Lyrics

[Intro]
Woo, oh, oh-woah
Oh-oh, oh-woah

[Chorus]
Girls and drugs, sex and money
Young boy problems
Take my love, use my body
If I'm unconscious, wake me up again
If I'm unconscious, wake me up again
If I'm unconscious, wake me up

[Verse 1]
I'm dreamin' about it
Could barely sleep without you
I'm in need of some lovin'
Late night, no clothes, just
Go to be unconscious, fixin' up your potion
Kissin' on your body, baby, I'm [?] this
Why you have to leave when you feel that's comin'?

[Chorus]
Girls and drugs, sex and money
Young boy problems
Take my love, use my body
If I'm unconscious, wake me up again
If I'm unconscious, wake me up again
If I'm unconscious, wake me up
[Verse 2]
Girl, you free up my mind
It's been a while, since you shorty heard me out
Only thing that make me smile is my daughter now
Only thing that piss me off is the run around
Me and you both got some stress, we should let it out on each other
We can do it all under cover in your suburbs
Girl, I'm supposed to be and [?] last summer
But I was overworkin' out here
I know that your body's on mine, on mine
I can be yours if you'd like
If I'm on the road, you're beside
Unpack heavy loads through your eyes
Baby girl, I think I feel love, can we try?
I done feel love so many times
You've been filled with so many lies
Close your eyes and fall up in me

[Chorus]
Girls and drugs, sex and money
Young boy problems
Take my love, use my body
If I'm unconscious, wake me up again
If I'm unconscious, wake me up again
If I'm unconscious, wake me up

How to Format Lyrics:

  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

This song takes me back to Young Boy Roy, I’ve done a lot of growing up since then…

via This Is RnB

What have the artists said about the song?
Genius Answer

There are two halves of me in this song, where I’m stuck in between two levels: I’m ready to grow up and I’m ready to change and I want to accept all these things about my life, but I’m still a young boy, and I’m still trying to get rid of all those habits that I created from me living fast and living dangerously. All these feelings that I’m feeling right now are amazing, and it makes me feel like this is the age I’m supposed to be living at now. But I still want to be young and live fast and free. So I’m just torn between the two.
