BAD NEWS
The Kid LAROI Lyrics

I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired, uh
I am exhausted and frustrated with my current situation

I see the devil out here in disguise, oh
I am able to see through the facade of people who are not truly honest

Why the fuck you out here tryna play the victim? I
Why are you pretending to be the victim of a situation when you are not?

But today, I guess I realize That's how life goes
I have come to accept that life is unpredictable and full of ups and downs

I done been through hell and I survived the storm
I have been through a lot of difficult situations, but I managed to overcome them

I was on the couch, I was kicked out of my home
I have experienced homelessness and had to couch surf for a period of time

You say that you know, but only I know (I know, I know, I know)
You claim to understand my struggles, but only I truly know what I have been through

And all I hear is bad, bad, bad, bad news
I am constantly bombarded by negative news and information

Every day, a different headline, a new story
Every day, there is a new negative headline in the media

I know it's not real, so why do I worry?
I am aware that the negative news is not always true, but I still feel anxious about it

I know you for yourself and not for me
I understand that you are looking out for your own interests and not necessarily mine

The fame change people, why don't you just call me?
I have noticed that fame can change people and I wish my friend would reach out to me more often

Money make the best guys turn into some bad liars
Money can cause even the most honest people to become deceitful

I know you know too
I am aware that my friend is also aware of this fact

A lot people changed that I never thought would
I have been surprised by how much some people have changed

But my family straight, my money long, so fuck it, I'm good
Despite the changes in people around me, I am financially stable and my family is doing well

These people ain't a hunnid like they said that they was
I have discovered that some people are not as genuine as they led me to believe

Oh well, I'll be the bad guy until I flatline
I am willing to be seen as the villain if it means being true to myself

Don't ever try to act like you were never loved
I want to remind people that they have been loved, even if they have changed for the worse

It's all that I hear
The negativity is all I am able to focus on and it is overwhelming

call, call, call
This repetition of the word represents a longing for connection and support from others
