[Verse 1]

It was a Friday, I was chilling all stealth

Moms had to go to work, I couldn't watch myself

I'm thinking I'm chilling with one of my uncles in the park

But I had to chill with Deadbeat, that's when it got dark

When mama brought the news I swear to God I almost shouted

But she paid him 20 dollars, so I couldn't get up out it

Up in the crib, with his bipolar sister, she was insane

It was a shame, inhaling the smoke or tapping the vein

I've seen them do some crazy things

Call my mom and sister some crazy names

Almost got beat up on the train

From running his lip to a Crip with the grip

He was really tripping, I knew I had to be different

Deadbeat fathers, listen

[Hook]

(COME BAD BOY!)

That's the words that my pops said

Thought of me being something had went over my pops head

(COME BAD BOY!)

That's the words that my pops said

Thought of me being something had went over my pops head

(COME BAD BOY!)

That's the words that my pops said

Thought of me being something had went over my pops head

(COME BAD BOY!)

That's the words that my pops said

Thought of me being something had went over my pops head

[Verse 2]

I thank God for my mama, 'cause pops only brought drama

Almost forgot my name, messing with that marijuana

You wanna be a yardie but never been to Jamaica

I always had the facts to prove he was a faker

Sometimes I thought my making was mistaken

How are you hating on your own creation, behaving

As if there's no relation?

But when I bring the papes in, there's correlation

If life is a hotline, his responsibility is the caller waiting

It's hot up out-side, but we're inside

You've got the Jeep ride, you're lazy, keeping the fun away, G

Fed me ketchup and vegetables, ketchup and vegetables

The devil would make me better food than ketchup and vegetables

Ayo devil, am I right? (True that) You ain't hip-hop, so bring you back yo

Screw that! Who that? Call me mister Astro, classy, flashy

Whatever you want, just not mister Bradley

[Hook]

(COME BAD BOY!)

That's the words that my pops said

Thought of me being something had went over my pops head

(COME BAD BOY!)

That's the words that my pops said

Thought of me being something had went over my pops head

(COME BAD BOY!)

That's the words that my pops said

Thought of me being something had went over my pops head

(COME BAD BOY!)

That's the words that my pops said

Thought of me being something had went over my pops head

[Verse 3]

Daddy gave me a name, then walked away

But if he knew that I'd be payed

He'd probably be right here today

He was a deadbeat, no debate

To him I dedicate this tape

And ain't got nothing else to say

Yeah, by your son you're getting played

Clean up your act oh wait, I'm paid

I'll probably order you a maid

Ripping it on stage is how I stick it to your face

I'm going extra over beats because I know you're watching me

So fathers, never leave your kids

Because you'll never know what they'll grow up to be

[Outro]

That's the words that my pops said...

That's the words that my pops said...

That's the words that my pops said...

That's the words that my pops said...
