Born Bad Lyrics

[Bridge]
Me born bad
Me nuh wish bad fi people
Why when black man a rise, dem try hold you down with evil?
Skiller than MacGyver
Dem can't run me out like no Al Qaeda
Bwoy can't play with me food neither
Man skull top burn off like the Ghost Rider


[Chorus]
When man a hunt fi the food, don't come inna the way
Whole heap of ting rise from under the clay
Dem a talk, a to God me a pray
Mi Bible and mi browning keep dem away
Burn! Badmind people
Burn! Wicked heart people
Burn! Envious people

Suck your mother

[Verse 1]
Tell dem
Anuh Tom and Jerry ting this
Unruly resident this

Try hurt man with evil, and everything miss
And a gwan like everything cris

Step pon dem with mi Clarks or Kicks
No bwoy can't shorten, we anuh book list
No play with the money cheese, anuh Tetris
'Cause your next residence will be Meadowrest
[Chorus]
When man a hunt fi the food, don't come inna the way
Whole heap of ting rise from under the clay
Dem a talk, a to God me a pray
Mi Bible and mi browning keep dem away
Burn! Badmind people
Burn! Wicked heart people
Burn! Envious people
Suck your mother

[Verse 2]
Tell dem
Anytime dem fight we, we get stronger, stronger, stronger
And every time when dem try kill we off, we live longer, longer, longer

Whole heap of hungry dawgs me response fah
Any bwoy make no talk, village answer
Dem can't stop da youth yah from prosper
Nuff bwoy dead if me use my anger


[Chorus]
When man a hunt fi the food, don't come inna the way
Whole heap of ting rise from under the clay
Dem a talk, a to God me a pray
Mi Bible and mi browning keep dem away
Burn! Badmind people
Burn! Wicked heart people
Burn! Envious people
Suck your mother
[Verse 1]
Anuh Tom and Jerry thing this
Unruly resident this
Try hurt man with evil, and everything miss
And a gwan like everything cris
Step pon dem with mi Clarks or Kicks
No bwoy can't shorten, we anuh book list
No play with the money cheese, anuh Tetris
'Cause your next residence will be Meadowrest

[Chorus: (2X)]
When man a hunt fi the food, don't come inna the way
Whole heap of ting rise from under the clay
Dem a talk, a to God me a pray
Mi Bible and mi browning keep dem away
Burn! Badmind people
Burn! Wicked heart people
Burn! Envious people
Suck your mother
