Bad
Joey Jewish Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Scrolling threw your phone, got the message i left
I still remember the weather
I got your scent on my sweater
you said that we would be forever

Know I did you wrong, everyday I regret it
I hope you know i never meant it
Its my addiction, im professing
thats got me stuck in this depression

i hope that you know
That i love you so
but its got control
so pray for my soul

Ive been waiting for you all day
got a couple things i need to say
I got it baddddd
i got it baddddd

The recreation always started fore the fun and games
Now im paralyzed, i need it in me everyday
I got it badddd
I got it baddd

Rap
Taken over by this type of feeling
Beautiful Glory on prissy
Everytime I made a promise to you
I could last 5 then im back to sinning
couldnt even, i live in the vision
I dont know if i could kick it distance
know you thinking ima good guy
but ive been the devil, got my full picture
prayin for me, prayin for me
i know you care for me, there for me
trust i could feel it deep in my depression
when the evil setting reaching there for a weapon
thats when of course im thinkin bout cha letter
you gave me hope that things were getting better
you been my london fog in the weather
left a legendary breaking records

Ive been waiting for you all day…oooh yea
got a couple things i need to say
I got it baddddd
i got it baddd

The recreation always started before the fun and games
Now im paralyzed, i need it in me everyday




I got it badddd
I got it baddd

The first time was a bad time
And ever since that time, I was tryna get it back
But I can't... get back to that place

[Verse 1]
Scrolling trough your phone, got the message I left you
I still remember the latter
I got your scent on my sweater
You said that we would be forever
Know I did you wrong, every day, I regret it
I hope you know I never meant to
It's my edition, I confess it
It's got me stuck in this depression
I hope that you know

But he's got control
So pray for my soul

[Verse 2]
Taken over by this type of feelin'
Beautiful glory y'all oppressing
Every time I made a promise to you I can last five, then I'm back to sinnin'
Good and evil, I live in the vision
I don't know if I can kick or dish it
Now you thinking I'm a good guy, but I've been the devil, got my fork pitchin'
Praying for me, praying for me
I know you care for me, there for me
Just I can feel it deep in my depression
When the evil said they reaching for a weapon
That's when I pause and think about your letter
You gave me hope that things were getting better
You've been my line of fog in the weather
Level: legendary, breaking records
