Lyrics

Semi Pro

I've been on my last kick for a minute
Running out of goals, stepping over toes
Sitting on the bench, I've been in it
Losing like a chore, coming up alone, yeah

Everybody thinks they're semi-pro
Then it all comes down like a waterfall raining on you
Got clean, I guess I'd rather never know
It's played out, now I'm hanging from the rafters

Sweating hard, all alone
To take a lap, the sweetest one

Head start on quitting, save your breath
Undressed and I'm never coming back for oncе
Saw that name on my jersey, always playеd for both teams
Had big dreams, then I felt bad

Killing you was a pleasure, man
Hope you understand that the measure wasn't all so tough
Kicking rocks in the promised land
Peace out, and I'm never coming back now

It feels like it should
I'll just let you do the talking
If you wanna stay back, you should
I can't promise you I'm anything
But it feels so damn good
You just love the way I want you
But I'm cool with it, so knock on wood
I've been bad but I'm only getting better
I've been bad but I'm only getting better

Not a second thought to lose, yeah, yeah
Gained something that I never thought I'd have before
Been broken and bruised, yeah, yeah
Peace out, I'm never going back now

It feels like it should
I'll just let you do the talking
If you wanna stay back, you should
I can't promise you I'm anything
But it feels so damn good
You just love the way I want you
But I'm cool with it, so knock on wood
I've been bad but I'm only getting better
I've been bad but I'm only getting better

It feels so damn good (I've been bad but I'm only getting better)
I've been bad but I'm only getting better
It feels so damn good (I've been bad but I'm only getting better)
I've been bad but I'm only getting better
It feels so damn good (I've been bad but I'm only getting better)
I've been bad but I'm only getting better
I've been bad but I'm only getting better
I've been bad but I'm only getting better
