[Intro]
Uh-huh
Welcome back, some bad news coming out of Los Angeles
Yea-yeah, B-L-U
What's going on, buddy?
Well, I got good news, and I got bad news
Real Bad Man
Kid, I got some bad news and some really bad news
"Bad News"
I got bad news, and bad news
Give me the bad news first
Uh-huh, yo, yeah
[Verse 1]
You can find me in a Cadillac, flipping through tracks like an acrobat
Battle raps back in my Los Angeles habitat
Rat-tat-tat, next thing you know, you hear clapping back
Action-packed, up in the city where the action at
Add, subtract, babies born, babies thrown from life
Life goes on, despite the norm, this is normal life
Born in strife, where the police force abortion right
Force your fight, just to take away your mortal flight
And we just wanna live in peace like we released from prison
We don't really want no beef like a vegan from Memphis
Sick of ditches in our streets, sick of living in trenches
First the teachers, now the judges giving us sentence?
And they say repentance is your ticket, uh
To eternal life, free from strife in the system
Systemic racism tryna claim victims
But we ain't having none of that "back in the day" shit again
[Chorus]
Dude, you ever wake up to the bad news
So bad that it sticks to you like tattoos?
That root that we smash through when, ain't nobody ask you to
R-B-M and that's Blu
Dude, you ever wake up to the bad news
So bad that it sticks to you like tattoos?
That root that we smash through when, ain't nobody ask you to
R-B-M and that's
[Verse 2]
I was born in Killa Cali, killa, in the middle of the Valley
I'm from South Central, devout vigilant mentality
Without a pistol, niggas wouldn't be killing madly
'Less they used vehicles, but how else would they attack me?
If I had a bad beat, uh, killing the seasonal
When we don't want police pushing funk in our regional
The chaos is unspeakable, solution's not reachable
Plus when you go to trial against they, they unbeatable
Unbelievable when the fees never feasible
Inconceivable how this country stay treating fools
Leaving you without a choice to even choose
Plus every time we see the news, we be in the pews
We are all Allah if you just read the clues
God body, anything formed against us will lose
So excuse me, I ain't invent the rules
I just intend to rule like I intended to
[Chorus]
Dude, you ever wake up to the bad news
So bad that it sticks to you like tattoos?
That root that we smash through when, ain't nobody ask you to
R-B-M and that's Blu
Dude, you ever wake up to the bad news
So bad that it sticks to you like tattoos?
That root that we smash through when, ain't nobody ask you to
R-B-M and that's, and that's Blu
[Outro]
What's gotten into you? (I've got some bad news)
Give me the bad news
It's bad news! Bad, bad news!
This is bad, so fucking bad
Well you should know that it's bad news, Wembley, bad news
