    First World Problem Child - LYRICS
    First world problem child
    yo, you lost your way
    Born on easy street
    never step foot on MLK
    Easy living in your position
    with a white last name
    Pre-conditioned to be the villain
    another suburban day
    Every rich white kid’s got something to say
    Shut the fuck up
    (first world problem child)
    Fortunate and favored
    you spit the same old flavor
    You can use a taste of another race
    what’s it like to be your neighbor?
    Knock knock, coming in hot
    we don’t need the key, we can break the lock
    to your gated house, show the sheltered the real shit
    bring the mother fucking truth out
    First world problem child
    Step in their shoes, and walk a mile
    I’m a surgeon with a switch blade
    I’ll cut you see if you still bleed
    you wouldn’t know a problem
    ‘cause you got everything you need
    I got Iron in my arteries
    you got a wall between yourself and reality
    Show the sheltered the real shit
    Bring the mother fucking truth out
    Every rich white kid’s got something to say
    Shut the fuck up

      Punk is the OG SJW gone wrong today. They're supposed to rally people that gave a shit and that was a beautiful thing not breed these posers with the half-assed mainstream version of the original ideals.

      ***** I don't get it, what's the difference other then age? Being a rich white kid is just a wealthy person who is white...and a kid. Maybe they say stupid shit because they're kids? Also what about rich black kids, you think they don't exist? You think don't dehumanize the poor? Go look at how some black celebs live. I get the message you're trying to say but it's poorly said no matter how you justify it. Especially how in the new song you say "free speech is dead" while wanting to deny kids their free speech and "shut them up" for their age/race/socio status. Not to mention all the most racist white kids aren't rich, some of the most racist whites are the poor uneducated ones. The same rich kids you're talking about mostly have your view point. Anyway I liked the song but not the lyrics.

      @@afed69daprophet Thank you for telling exactly how it is. The bands I listened to when I was a teenager - like The Sex Pistols, Government Issue, etc. Were pro freedom of speech - where as this band obviously isn't unless you agree with them. That's fascist! This SJW crap has leaked into EVERY form of media. I can't even go see a movie without being preached to and it's fucking annoying. At least I had a time in my life when the world wasn't bat shit crazy... And if you dare to step out of line - you get dog piled by the left. Stuck in a blizzard of snowflakes. Hitler and the Nazi Party were VERY fond of burning books, art and literature that didn't coincide with their beliefs. I'm sick of identity politics that tell you if you are a certain race or status financially - you have no right to an opinion what so ever - even if it is valuable, factual and makes perfect sense - you're simply shut down and told to STFU. And I'm not talking about the small part of the population that truly ARE Neo Nazis and members of the KKK. How is this band "edgy" or cool when they are doing exactly what they are preaching against?

    Having really enjoyed the other two songs SFTP put out from their upcoming album, and with Sam be my favourite vocalist (from my favourite band) I was pretty excited to see that he was featured on one of the songs. After listening to it, I'm really disappointed. The lyrics are really cringy and just terrible in my opinion. Even Sam's part did nothing to help the song. It sounds like a song an angsty 14 year old would write. :/

    I like this new stuff, It just worries me how you are taking the route of "privilege coercion/shaming"-tactics, which in my opinion just segregates people even more and lowers understanding between people.
    Everyone's got something to say and everyone should be heard out because everyones perspective has the possibility to be worthwhile and provide insight.
    What would make it make sense to me would be if it was complaints about not having an iPhone or trivial bullshit but I get the sense that all you say with this is: "anything you say will be dismissed because of your race and class.". Which is highly ironic.
    By all means, respond and give me your two cents if you're reading this. You are very good to your fans, responding to their comment and such. Have I missed the mark on what your song's about?

    • @Strayfromthepath
      @Strayfromthepath 9 років тому +8

      ITTURNEDTHEDEAD I think you may have missed the mark, which happens, and I would love to explain our interpretation of the song. The song is not about white people who are wealthy, it is about "rich white kids"...which are different. There is nothing wrong with being wealthy, and working hard.... thats not what we are trying to tackle here. This is about the people, that have grown up and never had a "real" issue in their lives. They were born rich, and taught rich. They have been completely dehumanized and lack the understanding that other races and sexes don't have the same privileges that they have had.
      Stray is by no means rich, but we are lucky enough to live off this band, which is rich in itself. But I understand that some people are born with less opportunities than the average white american male. When I saw public unrest in Baltimore and Ferguson, I saw that there were people who were tired of oppression, they were tired of the 50% unemployment rate, and they were tired of their people being murdered. When the "rich white kid" saw it as "Thugs who are looting, so let them all kill eachother who cares"
      That shit is easy. Way to easy to see and way to easy to say. And then their friends see it, and their friends don't know better so it influences them, and then snowballs into something that is much bigger than themselves.

      ***** Thank you for your response, truly appreciate it!
      It's true, power and an abundance of something can make our empathy go numb, not just in money but also in power and other walks of life.
      I can totally get behind that, I've seen people who've had it real easy. For me here where I live: it's been diverse and not always have they've been draconian, seeing those being stepped on as 'savages' but instead very misguided people (mostly youths) who take the side of minorities, hurting, shaming and hating those who do not fit in to their criteria of "oppressed" and I see the "common" or uninformed taking this position of hate on people because they're straight or white and so on and so forth, of course the criteria varies from culture to culture. I guess my experience with these people got me worried over you that you felt this way. I'm not from America, I might add if this sounds all foreign to you.
      When I got into Hardcore, claimed edge, started up my band, Creatures, with my best pals, I did so because nothing mattered except for what we said and what others had to say, that we were angry but never felt any hate and that we understood and tried to understand everything and everyone for a better world. The struggle against racism isn't to make the scales tip to the other side, its to get rid of the scale alltogether.
      That was a long message, but I hope you see where my worry came from, yeah?
      Also, please come to Trollhättan, Sweden again so we can do the rowing boat one more time, aight?

    • @Strayfromthepath
      @Strayfromthepath 9 років тому +4

      ITTURNEDTHEDEAD I am pretty sure I understand where you are coming from. Why bring up anything about privileged white people at all, when it just keeps another form of racism alive...I believe is what you're trying to say.
      To that I will use an example of why WE think this is necessary. If my wife is upset because I never do this dishes, its easy to say the simple fix is "come on man, do the dishes"....but what if I am not thinking about it? What if I don't care about them? What if I can't see what something so simple like doing the dishes is making my wife so upset? Maybe I need to be told "hey, start to change this because it upsets me"??
      I think that if this song gets one kid psyched about it, and that kid notices people he knows like the people in the song, and can work to change that person to see a different side of the world, then it does its job.
      We feel a responsibility to write songs that people are too worried to write or they write an easier version of it. There are plenty of songs saying "Everybody just get along" and not enough "this is the problem"....Stray writes a lot of the "this is the problem" songs to compliment the "everybody just get along" songs. I hope that makes sense haha

    • @ITTURNEDTHEDEAD
      @ITTURNEDTHEDEAD 9 років тому

      ***** Fair enough, and I get the analogy its good stuff.
      I don't know if I myself would use labels like that when writing for my band to get the point but rather would point out what they do and how it ruins for others; I'd point to your song "Negative & Violent" which is among the songs we'd sit and discuss for hours on end about its meaning and how it translates into our lives when we were beginning to write our first (and only haha) EP. The message we took from it was the same as it is being conveyed in this one but we could apply it to more.
      The ambiguity yet being so direct with the premises of what its about was among what inspired me incredibly in my lyrics-writing, it makes it timeless in a sense and yet tackles the air out of the issue but more importantly: it makes the listener think, apply that shit because the premise exists everywhere, regardless of what the 'crook' is.
      I ain't sitting here writing that how I write lyrics is better, that'd be bogus seeing as it is inspired by bands like you guys, STYG, Terror, Yersinia, Comeback Kid and so on.

    • @Strayfromthepath
      @Strayfromthepath 9 років тому +4

      ITTURNEDTHEDEAD I feel you. Glad we got to have this talk. But what it comes down to is that we write music our way, and you write it your way. You are influenced by certain things and we are influenced by others. Thats what makes us us and you you. Whats sick here is getting to discuss things and end with a mutual respect, regardless of difference of opinion on the approach. Thanks for listening and good luck with your music. See you at a show soon I hope.
