The Good the Bad the Ugly
Kanye West Lyrics

Good morning America, good morning to Erica
Wishing a pleasant morning to America and specifically to Erica

Who gave me good head while watching good morning America
Erica provided oral pleasure while watching the morning news

And good day New York, have a good day in court
Wishing a good day to New York and hoping for a favorable outcome in court

My niggaz drive around the hood looking for good ye' to snort
My friends search for high-quality drugs in our neighborhood

I never liked the goodbyes, always caught a good vibe
I dislike farewells but always find positive energy around me

Always had a good time, could always spot a good guy
I consistently had enjoyable experiences and could easily recognize decent people

From a good guy, look alive, look alive, look or try
When encountering a genuine person, be alert, attentive, and willing to put in effort

You know that old saying what they say about good guys
Referring to the common belief about the positive qualities of good-natured individuals

I bet that's why I went bad, needed all my chips bad
I speculate that the reason I became corrupted is that I urgently desired to accumulate wealth

Fiends needed it bad, started hittin' liq' bad
Addicts desperately craved drugs and resorted to excessive alcohol consumption

Had to get that work off before that shit went bad
I had to sell my illicit goods quickly to avoid any potential negative consequences

If not, it gets bad, and things will only get bad
Failing to take action will result in a deteriorating situation and further worsening of circumstances

So now I'm getting bad skin, and I got that badge and
Currently, my physical appearance is deteriorating, and I acquired a negative reputation

Tellin me them bastards, don't catch a bad break
Corrupt individuals are warning me to avoid unfortunate circumstances

Caught a bad rate on whip with bad brakes
I experienced an unfavorable interest rate and owned a vehicle with faulty brakes

I'm caught up in these bad ways havin a bad day
I am entangled in negative behaviors, leading to a day filled with hardships

So now the game's ugly, and my pain's ugly
The situation in the industry has turned unpleasant, and my emotional suffering is unattractive

And my chain's ugly, things became ugly, 'cause I'm ugly ducklin'
My jewelry is unattractive, and circumstances worsened because I am seen as an outsider

Got a stain and its musty, wakin' up looking crusty
I have a dirty mark on my clothes that smells unpleasant, and I wake up with an unkempt appearance

And miss thang who's ugly is sayin' to me "don't touch me"
An unattractive girl is refusing physical contact with me

I went from pretty willie to pretty silly
I transitioned from being charming and smooth to being foolish and ridiculous

But I'm still pretty gully so you thins will still get pretty ugly
However, I still possess street toughness, so if provoked, the situation can become violent

B.I.G. said get ya money ain't no telling they gon love me
Referring to The Notorious B.I.G.'s advice to focus on financial success as it's uncertain if others will genuinely support me

When your money get funny and them days ain't sunny
During times of financial difficulty and when circumstances are unfavorable

Niggaz give pounds and hug me, tho they really wanna slug me
People greet me with friendly gestures, but secretly, they have hostile intentions

And this for the hood, you got to love me
Addressing the neighborhood and expecting their support and adoration

Good morning to ummm, I don't remember your name
Politely greeting someone whose name I have forgotten

But I remember the brain, here go a fare for the train and
Despite forgetting their name, I recall their sexual skills and offer them money for transportation

Good morning to Chi-Town, where my niggaz ride down
Extending a pleasant morning to Chicago, where my companions cruise through the streets

And bust clowns, and look for some bustdowns to bust down
Engaging in confrontations and searching for promiscuous women to engage in sexual encounters with

And she ain't got a car she on the bus now
Referring to a woman who relies on public transportation because she doesn't own a car

But her gear is bangin', she one of us now
Despite her lack of transportation, her fashion sense is impressive, making her part of the group

I wanted badly to bone 'cause she was bad to the bone
I desired sexual intercourse with her because she had an alluring and captivating persona

She from a batter home, she mad when she at home
She comes from a conflicted household, and she becomes angry when she's there

So I gave her my number to beep off, she wanted to take a week off
I provided her with my contact information to communicate via pagers, but she requested a break from interacting

Bustin scary movie nuts, I had to get the freak off
Engaging in sexually explicit activities reminiscent of scenes from horror movies, I had to end our sexual encounter

The new Tom Cruise, took the Moulan Rouge on a too long cruise
Comparing myself to Tom Cruise, I embarked on a lengthy journey with a woman akin to the film 'Moulin Rouge'

She said "I ain't bonin you with them two long shoes"
She refused to engage in sexual intercourse with me because of my elongated shoes

And I get bougie in a grape poupon mood
I become pretentiously high-class when in a particular mood and act as if I prefer only the finest things

So I'm gon act cheap in a coupon mood
Consequently, I behave frugally and seek discounts when in a specific mindset

She said "Ye' you don't love me"
She accused me of not caring about her romantically

I told her that's the good, the bad, the ugly
I informed her that love can contain both positive and negative aspects

Good morning to Queens, the north side of my scene
Extending a pleasant morning to Queens, particularly the northern region I am associated with

And when it comes down to it, I'm a ride for my team
When necessary, I will fiercely defend and support my group of individuals

See it's a beautiful life, but the bills will make it ugly
Existence can be wonderful, but financial obligations can turn it unpleasant

And the beauty of life, is when you're forced to make it ugly
The true essence of life reveals itself when difficult choices must be made, leading to undesirable outcomes

Had a beautiful night, until a storm done made it ugly
The evening was initially enjoyable until an unexpected disturbance ruined the atmosphere

And a beautiful wife, now we divorcing and its ugly
Despite having a stunning spouse, our relationship has deteriorated, resulting in a messy divorce

Now my mind state is ugly, my blind dates are ugly
My mental state has turned negative, and the individuals I go on blind dates with are unattractive

I'm ready to turn it up in the streets and make it ugly
I am prepared to engage in disruptive activities and contribute to the chaos in the streets

Used to sit in Mr. Uglies with these chickens that were ugly
I used to frequent a place called Mr. Uglies with unappealing women

And these bitches used to bug me to the point it made me ugly
These women would irritate me to the extent that it negatively affected my demeanor

Say things that were ugly in regards to their tummies
I would make unflattering remarks about their stomachs

But I took it all back, 'cause God don't like ugly
However, I eventually regretted my words as I realized that making derogatory comments goes against divine principles

Now I'm curbin' my bad words, they say that the bad burn
I am restraining myself from using offensive language as people claim that harsh words have negative consequences

I left it on bad terms, with a chic with a bad perm
I ended the relationship unfavorably with a woman who had poorly styled hair

Whose case took a bad turn, and face caught a bad burn
Her legal situation worsened, and her appearance suffered significant damage

And took the news bad when they said she had bad germs
When informed that she had a contagious disease, she responded negatively

The bad thing about it, the bitch was bad and bout it
The unfortunate aspect is that she was attractive and fearless

But the pussy smelled bad, so I had to get up out it
However, her genitalia emitted an unpleasant odor, causing me to end the relationship

So now we got bad blood, her son is a bad blood
As a result, we have animosity between us, and her son has inherited a hostile nature

But it happens in the hood when you inherit that bad blood
In the neighborhood, it is common for negative traits to be passed down through generations

And once it gets bad, it be bad for good
Once the situation deteriorates, it becomes permanently unfavorable

That's bad meaning bad not bad meaning good
Here, 'bad' is used in the negative sense, not as a term of approval or admiration

But I greet it as good, when you leave with the good
However, I perceive it positively when I depart from a situation with positive outcomes

Its all good in the hood, got called good 'cause I'm good
Everything is positive within the neighborhood, and people recognize my goodness and refer to me as such

Now I'm havin' some good nights, livin' this good life
Currently, I am experiencing enjoyable evenings and living a prosperous existence

Got me a good girl that I'm gon make me a good wife
I found a respectable woman who I intend to marry and who will be a faithful and loving spouse

So I'm, good to go, and I'm good where I go
I am prepared and well-suited for any situation or location

Look my man got good aim and that's a good thing to know
My associate possesses exceptional marksmanship skills, which is valuable information

And he came home for good, off of good behavior
He returned home permanently due to his commendable conduct

Spittin' that good game, so what's good with this paper
Promoting his persuasive and influential words, inquiring about lucrative opportunities

And this is for the hoods, the crabs, the junkies
Dedicated to the neighborhoods, the envious individuals, and the drug addicts

We showin' you the good the bad the ugly
Revealing and portraying various aspects of life, including the positive, negative, and unattractive ones
