Lupe Fiasco, Trae Tha Truth - Bad Don’t Seem So Wrong lyrics

Ain't no sense to bitch about it
Cause you all know what's gone wrong
Late at night, when you're in your bed
The bad don't seem so wrong

Tryin' to justify the violence
Reconcile in silence
Dress it up in fancy clothes
Wash it down with diamonds
Drown it out with music act like
They don't apply to you
Look how wobbly the rules is
You probly could improve if
You was in charge, maybe runnin' thangs
You was involved things would be different
Maybe you could make a difference
Or probably not and things
Would stay the same
And you go to sleep at night
Knowin things will never change
Wake up in the mornin and
You feelin kinda strange
Don't remember last night
So you back at it again
Turn back up your music put
Back on your chains
Fasten on your watch and slide
On all your rings
Put back on your glasses that
Block out all the pain
Hit yo niggas on the phone
And tell em that it's on
(Tell em that it's on)

Ain't no sense to bitch about it
Cause you all know what's gone wrong
Late at night, when you're in your bed
The Bad Don't Seem So Wrong

Destined to be a winner tryin to
Pick up where the rest lose
Prayin to the Father
Tryin' to figure out your next move
Pain across your face and still you
Wear it like your best shoes
But yet, you no accept it
Cause it just might be your best news
Nothin taken for granted
Still you searchin for an answer
Your fightin to be sane
Your momma fightin with cancer
Father ain't around, so now you
Gotta be the man, now
Tomorrow ain't ever promised so you
Gotta take a stand now
Hard times seem to be the
Only thing you understand fuck seein a mil
You tryin to make it to a couple grand
Even with a couple grand
You gotta try to make it last
You ridin for the fam knowin the
Devil tryin' to make ya crash
You gotta hold on, homie if you only knew
Never quit
Knowin somebody doin' worse than you

Ain't no sense to bitch about it
Cause you all know what's gone wrong
Late at night, when you're in your bed
The Bad Don't Seem So Wrong

You on the only road to give
Up strugglin where your heart at
Though death is where you end up
They tell me that's where we start at
Either way, you gon make em remember you
Just pray you don't get stuck
In homicide for that interview
You ended up in tears when all
You wanted was a smile
(All the while) Lookin for hope you
End up losin as a child
Realizin nothin helps to take
The the pain away
Cause if it was somethin that
Numb away the feelinm
You'd pray to God to situate a day
It's hard to keep it stand up
You're leanin on your last leg
The pressure tryin' to weigh in you
Just ran out your last bread
Window of opportunity feelin like
It just shut more
They tell you to be thankful your response
For em is "what for? "
It seem like everybody else
In a better position
Only thing else left to do is
Open up your ears and listen

Ain't no sense to bitch about it
Cause you all know what's gone wrong
Late at night, when you're in your bed
The Bad Don't Seem So Wrong
