Lyrics
Nu Breed
Yeah
C'mon
C'mon
Grew up in the savage life, come out that muddy water
Ain't got shit I can brag about, no love from my father
I been hustling my whole life, got a life filled up with drama
You can try me if you want to, but you don't want these problems
They prayin' for my downfall, they hope that I don't make it
I came up off the bench, the coach put me in rotation
Now I'm all about my business, ain't got time for conversation
I ain't got a lot to say and I ain't got a lot of patience
I been ridiculed and hated, locked in jail and medicated
Been through hell and barely made it, ain't really got no education
Been through trials and tribulations, talking trials and probation
All these dream that I been chasing, yeah, they mine for the taking
I been sufferin' but surviving, broke inside but smiling
Ain't no hope inside, but I'm tryin', tryin' to cope with all this violence
Got these voices in my head, but I just try to keep them silent
'Cause if they come alive, it won't be no denyin'
I'm a bad guy, southern born and bred
Yes, I pray for my enemies, I'm fucked up in the head
And I don't act right, livin' life on the edge
I coulda had it made, but I fucked it up instead
Living that fast life, staying ten steps ahead, so
When you think it's good, just remember what I said
I'm a bad guy, just remember what I said
I'm a bad guy
I been stabbed in the back manipulated, lied to and betrayed
I did shows up outta state and some of those shows I never got paid
Been plotted on and schemed on, been locked inside a cage
Always say what I believe in and never act my age
Overcame what I have faced and I'm still chasing all my dreams
If they hated me back then they gon' hate me 'til I leave
Never punked out, never backed down, better take a look at my background
Might a fell off, but I'm back now, and I'm killing every track now
I'll never break, I'll never fold, I'm never fake, I'm forever cold
I overdosed on real life, that's just they way my story goes
I was chose, I was destined, I arose, resurrection
Wipe the dirt from off my shoulder but don't get the wrong impression
My eyes see everything, my hat is tilted low
I don't trust nobody out here, I'm riding all alone
Used to be deep in the game though, but now I'm in the zone
Keep thinking this a game though, and I'm a let you know
I'm a bad guy, southern born and bred
Yes, I pray for my enemies, I'm fucked up in the head
And I don't act right, livin' life on the edge
I coulda had it made, but I fucked it up instead
Living that fast life, staying ten steps ahead, so
When you think it's good, just remember what I said
I'm a bad guy, just remember what I said
I'm a bad guy
