Bad News

[Verse 1]
I've been runnin' in a circle with a hurdle
Don't show 'cause I keep it internal
One of them days I forget to breathe
I wonder why my face turn purple

[Refrain]
I know that the money comin', I keep sayin' that to function
We just need an introduction
Hard to appreciate a thing you built when it's always in construction

[Verse 2]
Look at how I piece the beats up
Slice like piece of pizza
I won't let 'em get amnesia
I want you, I don't need you
You ain't gotta trust the process, Joel Embiid, yeah
It come from the inside
Tryna figure out my end goal
Feelings that I can't hide
I just had to vent though

[Chorus]
I'm sick of bad news followin' me
I know I had to get back on my feet
I'm not a bad dude, just bad with defeat
It's hard to dream when you havin' trouble fallin' asleep

[Post-Chorus]
Said I wanna get a mansion, a Jacuzzi
Theater to watch my movies
Wanna get a mansion, a Jacuzzi
Theater to watch my movies
Wanna get a mansion, a Jacuzzi
Theater to watch my movies
Wanna get a mansion, a Jacuzzi
Theater to watch my, watch my, watch my—

[Verse 3]
I just took a bike ride in Los Angeles
I peddled right by where a mansion sits
Thinkin' it'd be nice to have, I can't neglect the fact it's too big for a fam to fit
'Cause tell me what I really need the space for
When right around the corner, there's a woman in the streets
That could barely even get her meals paid for
We ain't talk, but I prayed for her

[Refrain]
I know that the money comin', I keep sayin' that to function
We just need an introduction
It's hard to appreciate a thing you built when it's always in construction

[Verse 4]
Man, we seen hard times with no hard hats
Always scared that I'll fall back
Deep fear I'll get left behind
Hate the thought that I could get declined
Scroll through an app for an instant cure
I don't gotta hide it, I'm insecure
Say how I feel, then I switch my words
Change my mind, been through worse
High in the air's how I hold my head
Kept my heart, give them soul instead
So much to do 'fore I'm old and dead
Sorry if I've been on edge

[Chorus]
I'm sick of bad news followin' me
I know I had to get back on my feet
I'm not a bad dude, just bad with defeat
It's hard to dream when you havin' trouble fallin' asleep

[Post-Chorus]
Said I wanna get a mansion, a Jacuzzi
Theater to watch my movies
Wanna get a mansion, a Jacuzzi
Theater to watch my movies
Wanna get a mansion, a Jacuzzi
Theater to watch my movies
Wanna get a mansion, a Jacuzzi
Theater to watch my, watch my, watch my—
