BAD
The Wavy Kid Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They wanna see you doing bad, bad, bad
They wanna see you doing bad, bad

They know I came up from nothing, but I turned nothing to something
And I know that shit it hurts them, because my life is too perfect
And I didn't think it was worth it, and I know I got them lurking
They gonna talk they gonna hate, but get the fuck up out my face
Because I'm back and I'm better
I'm shining forever
I shine for my dogs, yea, we shining together
Ignore all the fakes cause they gon' change like the weather
I stay in my lane, because I'm doing much better
Yea

One day I fell and I got up
And I told myself I was always gonna kill shit
And from that day on, I swear to god I've been winning, I've been winning
From that day I started making such a difference
I've been down, but now I'm up
They wanna see you doing bad, bad, bad
They wanna see you doing bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
They wanna see you doing bad, bad, bad
They wanna see you doing bad, bad, bad, bad, bad,
Yea, yea, yea

I'm the fucking man cause I did it by my lonely
They be talking hot, they be acting like they know me
Ballin like Lebron, fuck I'd rather ball like Kobe
I've been getting checks since I used to drive that 03'
Born in 97' so they know I had to shine
I've been winning so much lately, feel like Jordan in his prime
They like wavy what's the key
I told them go ahead and grind
But no matter what you do, don't you ever look behind

One day I fell, and I got up
And I told myself I was always gonna kill shit
And from that day on, I swear to god I've been winning, I've been winning
From that day I started making such a difference
I've been down, but now I'm up
They wanna see you doing bad, bad, bad
They wanna see you doing bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
They wanna see you doing bad, bad, bad




They wanna see you doing bad, bad, bad, bad, bad,
Yea, yea, yea
