[Intro 1: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
This is the trip
~#**************#~
The best part I, really, really like
~#**************#~
Yeah, Im proud to be a part of this number!
~#**************#~
Used to be good, now Im going bad…
~#**************#~
Yo…
~#**************#~
Like this
~#**************#~
[Intro 2: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
Everything was ‘posed to be all Jesus
~#**************#~
Everything was ‘posed to be all Jesus
~#**************#~
But it seems like everything is all Satan
~#**************#~
But it seems like everything is all Satan
~#**************#~
Everything was ‘posed to be all Jesus
~#**************#~
Everything was ‘posed to be all Jesus
~#**************#~
But it seems like everything is all Satan
~#**************#~
But it seems like everything is all Satan
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
Yo, yo, check
~#**************#~
In the new millennium you cant play with nobodys mind, man
~#**************#~
Deliberately messing up a good thing or holding up a grind and
~#**************#~
You already knowing lifes a big fight against time, man
~#**************#~
Crime minds really shine, whos dying is the kind man
~#**************#~
When some of us, find that life aint beautiful, we switch to pharmaceuticals
~#**************#~
Your nine to five aint suitable, for the cuticles
~#**************#~
Im going bad, currently I keep ending up with even less than I had
~#**************#~
Record company is dealing me something sad
~#**************#~
How do you expect a man to sit and wait with three kids
~#**************#~
For you to figure out what Tech S-I-N-G-L-E is?
~#**************#~
Going bad, I feel like I just might act a fool when I see em
~#**************#~
Got a nigga, feeling petty looking forward to per diem
~#**************#~
I got some issues, most of these record execs are soft as tissues
~#**************#~
Defecate on they self when they here some “Im gon get yous”
~#**************#~
Understand this; when a Rogue sat, you trying to hold back his dough sack
~#**************#~
And try to bozack and he go cock the 4-4 back, you chose that
~#**************#~
So cut these ties and Ill rise, lets compromise
~#**************#~
Or else Ill hop a plane with my guys
~#**************#~
QDIII said, “It aint all good, when you sign with a record label
~#**************#~
Who aint had a hot soundtrack ever since Boyz N Da Hood”
~#**************#~
[Bridge: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
Im going (Bad)
~#**************#~
No luck, Im going (Bad, bad, bad)
~#**************#~
So rough Im going (Bad, bad, bad)
~#**************#~
No church, Im going (Bad, bad, bad)
~#**************#~
Disperse Im going (Bad)
~#**************#~
Feel me out now
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Charmelle Cofield & Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
This life I live aint extra
~#**************#~
No angels to stand next to
~#**************#~
To live a life thats better
~#**************#~
Ill sacrifice whatever (Yeah, yeah)
~#**************#~
This life I live aint extra
~#**************#~
No angels to stand next to
~#**************#~
To live a life thats better
~#**************#~
Ill sacrifice whatever
~#**************#~
[Interlude: LeCoya LeJuene]
~#**************#~
No one wants to see an angel in this world in these days
~#**************#~
To them I am the epitome of evil
~#**************#~
A found soul looking to save the lost
~#**************#~
To them I am death and of not wanting an evil man
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
For living expenses they gave me like thirty-five Gs
~#**************#~
Picture me in a hospital shot up with thirty IVs
~#**************#~
Thats what I really needed when I found out this drama trauma
~#**************#~
Instead of moving I shouldve kept all that and continued to stay with my girls momma
~#**************#~
Gutter living got me tripping Im smoking bud daily
~#**************#~
Gutter living got me tripping, Im going blood crazy
~#**************#~
Gutter living got me tripping, Im struggling like a bad actor
~#**************#~
Gutter living got me sounding like The Madd Rapper
~#**************#~
The bad influence, the bad apple, the bad seed (Thats me, yes)
~#**************#~
The bad people, the bad karma, the bad breed
~#**************#~
Mushroom tripping, brains a mushroom cloud
~#**************#~
Finding groupies tugging on my zipper while Im hanging on to my vows
~#**************#~
Demons surround me in triple stage darkness and taunt me
~#**************#~
They know Im the good guy going bad so they want me
~#**************#~
All my family remembers way back in the day I was good but they doubt now
~#**************#~
Disperse, Im going (Bad), feel me out now
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Charmelle Cofield & Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
This life I live aint extra
~#**************#~
No angels to stand next to
~#**************#~
To live a life thats better
~#**************#~
Ill sacrifice whatever (Yeah, yeah)
~#**************#~
This life I live aint extra
~#**************#~
No angels to stand next to
~#**************#~
To live a life thats better
~#**************#~
Ill sacrifice whatever
~#**************#~
[Interlude: LeCoya LeJuene]
~#**************#~
To say going bad to most ha
~#**************#~
Never been good just getting worst
~#**************#~
Thoughts to destroy and to tear things apart
~#**************#~
Thoughts to praise, adore and to love
~#**************#~
The trick is what voice is telling you what
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
Mind state of a pirate, Im irate
~#**************#~
Used to be cool til some straight fool lit the pilot
~#**************#~
Will I be that mid-town bound in the middle of a riot
~#**************#~
Or at the warehouse shipping platinum, and Im shaking hands with Violet
~#**************#~
No love for the bane, false foes in the game
~#**************#~
The Qwest wreck was a shame, twas a journey full of pain
~#**************#~
But Tech N9ne will remain hella brave and untame so make way
~#**************#~
For the reign Im bringing Highland and Wayne
~#**************#~
No thanks to Qwest they on the receiving end of the gun
~#**************#~
I cursed you, every time I climb youre getting fired one by one
~#**************#~
But taking Juan with me cause he knows the true meaning of a modern day hippie
~#**************#~
Who creates jewels off mushrooms and bombs sticky (For real)
~#**************#~
Hog Stylin, Mid West Side and Newday and King Tech and Sway
~#**************#~
These are the people keeping me alive to this day (Much love)
~#**************#~
QD said “You cant make rell with a label
~#**************#~
Who let Tipper Gore talk shit and made em take Ice Ts cop killer off the shelves”
~#**************#~
[Bridge: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
Im going (Bad)
~#**************#~
No luck, Im going (Bad, bad, bad)
~#**************#~
So rough Im going (Bad, bad, bad)
~#**************#~
No church, Im going (Bad, bad, bad)
~#**************#~
Disperse Im going (Bad)
~#**************#~
Feel me out now
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Charmelle Cofield & Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
This life I live aint extra
~#**************#~
No angels to stand next to
~#**************#~
To live a life thats better
~#**************#~
Ill sacrifice whatever (Yeah, yeah)
~#**************#~
This life I live aint extra
~#**************#~
No angels to stand next to
~#**************#~
To live a life thats better
~#**************#~
Ill sacrifice whatever
~#**************#~
[Outro: LeCoya LeJuene]
~#**************#~
Right now I cant distinguish which voice Im listening to
~#**************#~
Am I evil? Or just another lost soul going bad?
~#**************#~
Or just been bad and getting worst?
