… Bad Boy

So you want to be a bad boy

Hardened, tough and cold

So you want to hear your “friends” proclaim

“O.G.-You’re bad, you’re king, you’re bold. 

 So you want to impress the world, I see

Become a legend in your time

Do the things to bring you fame

Become the master mind. 

You’ll have so much money

Around you all will swarm

You’ll have every honey

In your arms to keep you warm. 

 The clothes you’ll wear, the car you’ll drive

The House and all your “friends”

Everything you ever dreamed

You own, is yours, can’t end.

 You’ll have power, hold your head up high

And, of course, if anyone offends you

Don’t you know they’ll have to die

“Don’t dis me man, you’re through.” 

 Everywhere you go in life

Men will give to you “respect”

Fear will cut them like a knife

Their nerves will all be wrecked. 

Then one day you’re face down

Police are cuffin’ you

All your “friends” have done left town

Time for you to pay your dues. 

 They throw you in a prison cell

They take away your name

Now you find yourself in hell

It’s all part of the game. 

The other cons sniff you out

Like sharks they circle round

They try you, see what you’re about

Then beat you in the ground. 

 They steal what little things you own

They pick, abuse and use you

To them it’s like a night on the town

Your dignity gone, they refuse you. 

Now you’re serving someone else

Who’s badder and colder than you

All your pride and ego melts

There’s nothing that you can do. 

 You eat the slop sliding off your spoon

Get sick but there’s no doctor

Still have to clean your boyfriend’s room

And organize his locker. 

For years you file your appeals

Each one comes back denied

Empty and useless is how you feel

You’ve lied and tried and cried. 

 Horror and terror everyday

You’re used to it by now

You’ve only thrown your life away

Bad boy, stand up-take a bow.
