Navigating the Turbulence of Relationships in 6LACK's 'Prblms'

6LACK's 'Prblms' is a raw and introspective track that delves into the complexities of modern relationships and the personal struggles that come with them. The song's narrative revolves around the artist's tumultuous relationship with a woman and his subsequent emotional detachment. The lyrics oscillate between moments of vulnerability and indifference, painting a picture of a relationship marred by miscommunication and unmet expectations.

The opening lines set the tone for a confessional where 6LACK admits to saying hurtful things while under the influence, leading to a heated exchange. The woman he describes seems to have lofty aspirations ('she want the God damn skies'), which contrasts with his desire for someone grounded. This disparity in expectations is a recurring theme, as he reflects on the push-and-pull dynamics of their interactions. The chorus emphasizes his shift from being emotionally invested ('Remember that I tried to build ya') to a state of apathy ('Now I ain't worried bout shit'), suggesting a coping mechanism to deal with the stress of the relationship.

The second verse further explores the theme of disillusionment, as 6LACK expresses frustration with his partner's behavior, which includes a lack of ambition and financial irresponsibility. The repeated question 'Why you do that?' underscores his confusion and disappointment. Despite the negativity, he finds solace in music ('I'ma sip on this drank, It's easing my brain'), indicating that his art is both an escape and a therapeutic outlet. The song concludes with 6LACK moving on, finding 'a new thing' and reaffirming his self-worth, suggesting a journey towards self-discovery and healing after the fallout of a failed relationship.
