Born Bad Lyrics

That's the way it begins -   

you try to behave,   

yeah, you try to fit in.   

But when you rise and stand   

you find a lock-step march -   

no room for jazz.  



Born bad-   

with a slight-o-hand   

I go from jam to jam   

with a crash, boom, bam.  



Born bad -   

I dodge a sucker punch   

and drop a bomb, like Liston,   

on an animal hunch.  



I've been down.   

Yeah, I've spent some time downtown.   

I've covered sacred ground,   

soft and slow and round.  



I gave up.   

Yeah, I learned to give it up,   

thinkin' that's the final cut.   

But it turns out I was wrong.  



Born bad -   

that's the way it began,   

stuffed a young pink lung   

down a rank glue bag.  



Born bad -   

this is where it all lands   

for a bull headed, corner hangin'   

problem child man.  



I grew hard.   

Over time my scars toughed up.   

When gettin' even just wasn't enough,   

I had to choke my conscience off.  



I've come far.   

Yeah, I had to travel far.   

Peel through layers sick and raw   

just to taste and touch once more.  



Born bad -   

like a synchro-mesh shift   

that's stuck in third   

just smokes and burns.  



Born bad -   

with a cig-hangin' lip.   

A talk-back baby on a   

star-crossed ship.
