Badlands
[Intro]
Take em away
To the badlands
You can have them (Got me big mad yeah)
Aye
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me tell you a story...
About our future
Aye

[Verse]
Hit em with a switch up
Aye, that’s cool
Treat it like 8 ball, the way we gene pool
All in my blood dawg, but we don’t bool
Sit back and relax; Let me tell you
The mental state of the new school (yeah)
Young buck can I say the truth?
Prognosis, we lost that too
All that we have is the youth
Aye that’s the truth
Aye that’s truth in the booth
And we fools
If we move how we move
How we do
And the earth on its last limb
Like amputees do gymnastics
How can I pass this
When we running fast?
It’s crazy
Yeah, slow down
Babies have babies
Ladies stacking the pounds
To compete with a body that ain’t really around
And they making it easy to get that rawr (cat noise)

[Pre-Chorus]
If I was a big man
I’d have big plans
Take em out the fast way
Everybody dead bow bow bow, castaway

[Chorus]
Take em away (take em away)
To the badlands (yeah)
You can have them (yeah)
Got me big mad yeah (big mad)
Take em away (take em away)
To the badlands (to the badlands)
You can have them
Give em their passions, yeah (woo!)

[Verse 2]
Aye, dark days (yeah)
When I talk about dark days (yeah)
Yeah, we had to learn the hard way (yeah)
Kids dead on the parkway (yeah)
We smoked cause we thought it was a flex
Now we all got holes in our neck
Yeah, we used to fight for acceptance
Now we kill ourselves from rejection
Now we walking on egg shells
Cause what we say not politically accepted
Calling me intolerant cause (wow) I ain’t support the agenda
But if you don’t agree with my beliefs
Then aren’t you just as much of bigot?

Aye, yuh, that’s that downfall, aye (aye)
We thought with our iPhone, aye (aye)
We got stuck on trifle, aye (aye)
We made Jah a rival, aye, yuh

[Pre-Chorus]
If I was a big man
I’d have big plans
Yeah, take em out the fast way
Everybody dead bow bow bow, castaway
[Chorus]
Take em away (take em away)
To the badlands (hey!)
You can have them (yeah)
Got me big mad yeah (yeah)
Take em away (take em away)
To the badlands (yeah, yeah)
You can have them
Give em their passions, yeah (woo!)

[Bridge]
Just imagine, your was perfect
In everything that you do
Just imagine, you were spotless and they just step all on you
Yeah, spit in your face
Spit in your face, yeah

Young child
My son
'preciate your patience
This was the introduction to this damnation
My time has come
So ‘preciate your youth
They came after me; They will come after you

[Chorus]
Take em away (take em away)
To the badlands (yeah)
You can have them (yeah)
Got me big mad yeah (yeah)
Take em away (take em away)
To the badlands (yeah,yeah)
You can have them
Give em their passions, yeah (woo!)

[Outro]
Hey!
Aye
You had two options, joker
Die now or Die later
It’s too late now
