BAD
B-Brave Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, my bad luck is falling
Falling down like rain
Bad luck is falling
Falling down like rain

No matter what I do
Seems like my luck won't never change
I felt kinda lucky
My luck was running slow
The last hand I caught four aces and the police broke down the door
I said, Lord
Lord, what can a poor boy do?

Well, ain't it bad when you can't make no money
Seems like all the bad breaks will come to you

Yeah, I got home this morning
She was looking kinda funny
She said "Don't come in, daddy, daddy, unless you got some money"
And I said oh
Lord, what can a poor boy do?
Well, ain't it tough when you can't make no money
Without your woman turning her back on you

Yeah
Oh, yeah
All right

Well now, I asked my woman for some dinner
She looked at me like a fool
She said, "I'm playing checkers, daddy and I think it's your turn to move"
I said, oh
Lord, what can a poor boy do?





Yes, it's bad when you can't make no money
And your woman turns her back on you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to B-Brave's song "Bad" seem to reflect a sense of hopelessness that comes from facing nothing but bad luck. The line "my bad luck is falling, falling down like rain" creates an image of something heavy and continuous, as rain never seems to stop until it has run its course. This suggests that the bad luck the singer is experiencing is not something that can be easily shaken off. The repetition of the phrase "bad luck is falling, falling down like rain" emphasizes the sense of inevitability and helplessness, as if the singer is resigned to the misfortunes that keep coming his way.


The second half of the song describes how the singer's luck seems to be affecting other areas of his life, such as his relationship with his woman. The line "she said, 'Don't come in, daddy, daddy, unless you got some money'" indicates that his partner has become disillusioned with him due to his inability to provide for her. The repeated refrain of "Lord, what can a poor boy do?" suggests that the singer is aware of his own limitations and feels powerless to change his situation.


Overall, the song "Bad" seems to be a commentary on the idea that some people are simply born under a bad sign and are destined to experience misfortune no matter how hard they try. The lyrics are mournful and introspective, and give voice to the frustration and despair that can come from feeling trapped in a cycle of bad luck.
