BAD
Beswick Grant And J.m.i. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna remove my heart, it's killing me
All these days all I feel is bad energy
Cos when I'm alone there's no synergy
Put me right back in time to bad history
I wanna remove my heart, it's killing me
All these days all I feel is bad energy
Cos when I'm alone there's no synergy
Put me right back in time to bad history
Was I patiently waiting
Or become the patient
Driving myself crazy
With all of the hating
Of everything around me
And eventually mason
Hated himself for all of the feelings
And becoming displacement
Hurt Myself, Hurting you
Just to feel so alive
Pushed my buttons just for fun
But now I despise
The man I think I see
When I look into my soul
Is this the person I will be
When I'm dying and old?
I wanna remove my heart, it's killing me
All these days all I feel is bad energy
Cos when I'm alone there's no synergy
Put me right back in time to bad history
I wanna remove my heart, it's killing me
All these days all I feel is bad energy
Cos when I'm alone there's no synergy
Put me right back in time to bad history
Was every past trauma invoked for a greater grace?
And will I pass on my miss-doings and all my mistakes?
Will my heir have my issues, will she take on my traits?
Disdainful emotions all part of her fate
Can good come from a man that's inherently bad?
A greater life from evil, forged in a fire of a sad
A child of change fighting a life of pain
But is she destined to ruin herself because of our name?
I wanna remove my heart, it's killing me
All these days all I feel is bad energy
Cos when I'm alone there's no synergy
Put me right back in time to bad history
I wanna remove my heart, it's killing me
All these days all I feel is bad energy
Cos when I'm alone there's no synergy
Put me right back in time to bad history
And as I walk the path of the lonely warrior
I think of my ancestors that have come before me
And those who have carried my name and carried the torch
Through greater torment, only to prosper
Because if the history books are sure to be believed
Then I can survive a life of misery
We are not the damned, we live to find a way
Passing through the threshold to fight another day
I wanna remove my heart, it's killing me
All these days all I feel is bad energy
Cos when I'm alone there's no synergy
Put me right back in time to bad history
I wanna remove my heart, it's killing me
All these days all I feel is bad energy




Cos when I'm alone there's no synergy
Put me right back in time to bad history

We are not the damned, we live to find a way
Despite our past and current struggles, we don't have to feel hopeless or like we're doomed to fail.


Passing through the threshold to fight another day
We can keep moving forward and keep fighting for another chance at a better life.
