Want It Bad Lyrics

[Intro]
I want it bad, yeah
No turnin' back, yeah
I want it bad, yeah
No turnin' back, yeah

[Chorus]
I want it bad (Yeah)
I'm finally on the up and up
Cannot stop, can't have enough
I want it bad (Yeah)
This for you, come and get you some
See my work is never done, sing

[Verse 1]
Uh-huh, come on here, let's go
Life's fast (Yes) with high hopes
Story of a kid who was feelin' low (Yeah)
To the life of me, lemme set the scene
On my grind, I work hard
Lord in me, boy tell 'em it's a new mo'
Walk into a different zone, doin' the impossible
Too incredible (Get it, get it, get it, get it, woah)
All night, we gonna live it up and do what we like
Been so long, can't deny, oh, this fight we will survive
We free, see what happen to me
Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, this what we see
Oh, my heart is full, babe, know why? (Yeah)
[Chorus]
I want it bad (Yeah)
I'm finally on the up and up
Cannot stop, can't have enough
I want it bad (Yeah)
This for you, come and get you some (Mmm)
See my work is never done (Mmm)

[Refrain]
I wanna sleep good at night (Uh)
I wanna temple, that's right (Get it)
Can I get it, man?
Ooh, do you fill the bag? (Can you hear me out? Get it)
I want it bad (Yeah)
This is my dream fantasy (Huh?)
Step in my world, you won't believe (Huh?)

[Verse 2]
Hands say write it (Get it) and we keep it goin'
Runnin' through the nighttime (Yeah), let's hear it for 'em (Woo)
Gotta flex tight, scorin' winnin' points on 'em (Yeah)
For the team, and we drew 'em with the champ song
In the light, see the diamonds in the ring
I'm like Kobe from the 9, got the Mamba on the brain, man

Nah, nah, nah, but the beat, oh, we know
Yeah, we came to fly, we ain't come to lose nothin', bro (Hmm)
Angels sing to me when the stars are bright with a gentle breeze
From the start been wantin' more
And all in all, I'm in a dream
Things won't be the same, nah
This my world I'm imagining
Been thinkin' about it, thinkin' about
Dreamin' about
[Bridge]
Hey, hey!
Duh-duh, duh-duh, duh
The good life, the good life
The good life, the good life
The good life, the good life
The good life
The good life, the good life

[Refrain]
I wanna sleep good at night (Yeah)
I wanna temple, that's right (Yeah)
Can I get it, man?
Ooh, do you feel the bag? (Can you hear me out? Get it)
I want it bad (Yeah)
This is my dream fantasy (Huh?)
Step in my world, you won't believe (Huh?)

[Outro]
Huh, huh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
