You Bad Poem by Marcquiese Burrell

Just ask
you bad
and this ain't pop's latest fad
wearing fake smiles but they mad
'cause they see I drip with swag
No, a bih ain't got to brag
Check the cover of the mag
make my money
got my hustle
ain't chasing you, i'm chasing money
cause falling off just means i'm clumsy
At one point i didn't know how to deal and it's
As Europeans coming to America and stealing it
claiming wealth and other riches
dark times, plagued minds, how so vicious
i'm the here, i'm the now
A dreamer who masters a vision and is ambitious
and I ain't standing on backs or be malicious
i'm a fire, catch this flame
have you calling out my name
what make you think I could be tamed?
Do you really want to play this game?
I like that you ain't fearful
I'm known to leave them blue and tearful
If you like it like that
I'm a warning so be careful
mouth full of smoke
you can not match
i'm the mystery
you can not catch
Take you back to a time I don't like to think of
When no one I thought in my life felt any love
abandoned the child and that's just how it was
i'm a beast they didn't know how much of a savage.
if you come for me, i'm going let you have it.
this ain't no soft ship, this that hard ship
Some think their Mack game is crack
we ain't engage cause it's wack
That's time I wish I could get back
Caribbean heat, wanting my nectar cause it's sweet
My technique have made them weak
Accumulated wins, champions streak
you looking for trouble
those digits i'll double
like it's an empire
I can not defy her
I'll make mistakes but growth makes one a little more wiser
'Cause to be leader you know a little knowledge is required
