Hey man you know I′m really okay The gun in my hand will tell you the same But when I′m in my car Don′t give me no crap Cause the slightest thing and I just might snap When I go driving I stay in my lane But getting cut off makes me insane I open the glove box Reach inside I′m gonna wreck this fucker′s ride I guess I got a bad habit And it ain′t goin′ away Yeah Well they say the road′s a dangerous place If you flip me off I′m the danger you′ll face You drive on my ass You′re foot′s on the gas And your next breath is your last Drivers are rude Such attitudes But when I show my piece Complaints cease Something′s odd I feel like I′m God You stupid dumbshit goddam motherfucker I open the glove box Reach inside I′m gonna wreck this fucker′s ride
[CHORUS] You′re my bad habit I′m trying not to love you like I do (but it′s no use you know there′s no use you know there′s no use) You′re my bad habit... no somehow I don′t wanna be rid of you (but it′s no use you know there′s no use)
It′s obvious to me your kiss is lethal Your drug of choice is love and I can′t come down All the names under the sunre′s more than one reason You could be everyone but I still want you bad (want you bad) Some say it′s sad (say it′s sad)
[CHORUS] Always got someone out lookin for you and sometimes I just wanna knock you out You′d say I′d lost half of my brain Clinically I′m insane Cause I fiend for you bad (for you bad) You′re the best I ever had (ever had)
[CHORUS] You do me so wrong But you love me so right There′s more than one reason Why you shouldn′t be in me life To tell you I don′t want you no more would be a lie I gotta step back and accept the fact that you′re my you′re my bad habit
[CHORUS 2x]
I need to have you baby (baby) I′m lost without your taste and (ooh I′m lost without) You′re my drug my lifetime craving (you′re the drug you′re the vice that I love) You′re my bad habit baby you′re my bad habit baby
Oh you′re my cigarette Even better you′re my chocolate A straight shot to the head
Oh I don′t wanna be I don′t wanna be rid of you baby
All I need a fix or two and it′s gotta be you You′re my you′re my you′re my You′re my bad habit baby
Memories concern Like opening the wound I′m picking me apart again You all assume I′m safer in my room Unless I try to start again
[Chorus] I don′t want to be the one Who battles always choose Cuz inside I realize That I′m the one confused I don′t know what′s worth fighting for Or why I have to scream I don′t know why I instigate And say what I don′t mean I don′t know how I got this way I know it′s not alright So I′m breaking the habit I′m breaking the habit tonight
Cultured my cure I tightly lock the door I try to catch my breath again I hurt much more Than anytime before I have no options left again
[Chorus] I dont want to be the one Who battles always choose Cuz inside I realize That I′m the one confused I don′t know what′s worth fighting for Or why I have to scream I don′t know why I instigate And say what I don′t mean I don′t know how I got this way I′ll never be alright So, I′m breaking the habit I′m breaking the habit tonight
I′ll paint it on the walls Cuz I′m the one that falls I′ll never fight again And this is how it ends
[Chorus] I don′t know what′s worth fighting for Or why I have to scream But now I have some clarity to show you what I mean I don′t know how I got this way I′ll never be alright So, I′m breaking the habit I′m breaking the habit I′m breaking the habit tonight
How many times Are you gonna apologize? About the same thing And how many times Can i take it back? When im not the one thats doing wrong I felt maybe If I started praying Then we would get better but When I would pray, the answer would always come Back to me, being done But we′re so hard headed When we′re in love So I...
CHORUS I told myself That i would make some changes But the more I change There′s one thing that remains the same I cant seem to shake ya You seem to really have a hold on me And everytime that we break up We turn around and make up This can′t go on now I′ve gotta move on now It′s not the fact That I dont love you no more But I′ve got to break this bad habit Can′t take this bad habit no more
Im totally out of my element Im learning new ways to live While you′re in a comfort zone Not even thinkin (gotta think about me) To call me when I get mad around me gives Thinkin its gonna solve every issue From the girl callin my phone To the pictures that I saw And everytime you would break up with me For that thing and all I′ve taken all I can take (I′ve taken all I can take) but the way I live has gotta change ohhhh
CHORUS
And bring it down.... Have you ever loved somebody? So much that you was just too blind to see OOOH yes! All of the pain, that they was causing you (causing you) Ladies, do you feel me? (do you feel me?) Have you ever loved somebody? So much that you went against the right thing that you should do OHH, OHHH Then its time to make a change (time to make a change)
See it happen to a couple of friends See it happen in the worst circumstance Taking part in what an obsessive fall Just to see what all the fuss is about
Hey don′t do it Don′t use it Hey don′t do it Don′t chose it
I know the habit says it′s in love with you I know the habit says it′s long over due I know the habit like an unwanted friend I′m so happy with my rieches style
Hey don′t do it Don′t use it Hey don′t do it Don′t chose it
Never thought you have it Never thought you′d love it Never thought you′d have it Never thought you Never thought you
Speaking as a child of the 90′s
Never... have it Never... love it (then repeat until the end)
Turn it up, Turn it on Let the vibrate on your phone Call me up, wanna talk? Can you freeze me? It′s the same when you′re gone Keep me guessing what you want But my heart says that you could, could please me
I get umph in extremes And I should know what it means But I can′t wear the game to be over All your moves never change Only got myself to blame ′Cause I fall for it over and over
You′re like my first bad habit I can′t live without it I can′t give you up, give you up And even though you′re trouble I come back for double I can′t say enough is enough I′m a part of you, you′re a part of me And I know it′s wrong but I can′t get free You′re like my first bad habit How am I gonna give you up?
You′re the worst, you′re the best Something different from the rest It′s a fact seeing you′s never easy Like my style, hate my friends Oh the conflict never ends How much worse can it get when you tease me?
Wanna know [4x] The way we go around Can′t pull my first bad habit down Wanna know [4x] I just can′t give you up
You′re like my first bad habit I can′t live without it I can′t give you up, give you up And even though you′re trouble I come back for double I can′t say enough is enough I′m a part of you, you′re a part of me And I know it′s wrong but I can′t get free You′re like my first bad habit How am I gonna give you up?
Turn it off, Turn it on Uh-off, off, on, on Keep me guessing what you want Guessing, guessing what you want Turn it off, Turn it on Uh-off, off, on, on Keep me guessing what you want Guessing, guessing what you want
You′re like my first bad habit I can′t live without it I can′t give you up, give you up And even though you′re trouble I come back for double I can′t say enough is enough I′m a part of you, you′re a part of me And I know it′s wrong but I can′t get free You′re like my first bad habit How am I gonna give you up?
We all got to have, a place where we come from This place that we come from is called home We set out on our travels, we do the best we can We travel this big earth as we roam
We all got to have, a place where we come from This place that we come from is called home And even though we may love, this place on the map Said it ain′t where ya from, it′s where ya at
(verse one) I come up in the street around some real wild brothers With more than one name and more than one baby mother More than one chase, been on more than one run Got more than one enemy and more than one gun *Speaks foreign language* While these cats that′s less privileged is just more raw Less space cause the projects laced with more flaws Less sleep cause the nights ain′t peace, it′s more war The can is raw like thirsty, rainy season thunder claps On the block with your old pop pleading number act To the spot with the red top fiends is huddled at To the crib where the little kids spend their summers trapped With the jungle cats, lions and tigers, leopards and cheetahs For gazelle you get chased like a zebra, they blaze cheeba-cheeba And dominate the weaker on the street Hungry bellies only love what they eat and it′s hard to compete When they smile with your heart in they teeth And the odds is stacked high beyond and beneath Son i been plenty places in my life and time And regardless where home is, son home is mine
(chorus)
Some people live out in-New York City Some people live out in-Atlanta Some people got to live-Chicago Some people do live-Miami All my people at-California And other people got to live-London And everybody got to live in the whole big world Together just you and me
(verse two) When i think of home, my remembrance of my beginning Laundromat helping ma dukes fold the bed linen Chillin in front my building with my brother and them Spending nights in Bushwick with my cousins and them Wise town and Beat Street, federal relief Slowly melting in the morning grits we used to eat Sticking to your teeth and teeth is hard to keep With every flavor Now & Later only a dime apiece Old timers on the bench playing cards and thangs Telling tales about they used to be involved in things Start to drinking, talking loud, cussing up and showing out On the phone, call the cops, pick′em up, move′em out And it′s all too common to start wildin I′m a pirate on an island seeking treasure known as silence And it′s hard to find Block parties in dark lobbies Funeral homes packed but only dark bodies I can′t sleep hardly, stirred up like Bob Marley Marley Marl played the symphony, remember we recall Son i been to many places in my space and time and whatever my home is, son home is mine.
