BAD HABIT
MARAKANSKY
INTRO – FUNKY BASS AND TALKBOX
Uh!
Turn that bass up!
West side, East side...
MARAKANSKY!
You know the feeling.
VERSE 1
Black shirt, clean shoes, midnight ride,
Got that old-school rhythm running deep inside,
No gold chains, but the attitude shines,
I don't chase clocks, I make my own time.
They say I'm trouble, I say maybe that's true,
Got a little bit of crazy in the things I do,
I don't play perfect, never claimed that crown,
If the party's getting boring, I'm shutting it down.
One eye on the road, one hand on the wheel,
Life's too short to pretend what you feel,
Got a crooked little smile and a dangerous plan,
I'm not everybody's type, I'm my own damn man.
PRE-HOOK
Oh, here we go again,
Same old story, different weekend,
I know exactly what I'm doing,
But I ain't stopping, keep it moving!
HOOK – CATCHY G-FUNK MELODY
I'm a bad habit, baby, can't deny,
A little bit of trouble with a look in my eye,
Bad habit, yeah, that's my style,
Make a wrong turn just to drive a few miles.
Oh-oh, don't try to change me,
Oh-oh, you can't rearrange me,
I'm a bad habit, that's what they say,
But I look damn good getting lost this way!
VERSE 2
I got no filter when the truth comes out,
Too much confidence, too much mouth,
I laugh at problems, dance through stress,
Wear my mistakes like a tailored vest.
I don't need a Bentley, don't need a throne,
Give me four wheels and a road of my own,
A little old-school funk and the windows down,
Let the whole damn neighborhood feel that sound.
I ain't an angel, I ain't a saint,
Got a little sunshine mixed with some rain,
Sometimes I'm wrong, sometimes I'm right,
But I'm never gonna fake it just to fit your life.
HOOK
I'm a bad habit, baby, can't deny,
A little bit of trouble with a look in my eye,
Bad habit, yeah, that's my style,
Make a wrong turn just to drive a few miles.
Oh-oh, don't try to change me,
Oh-oh, you can't rearrange me,
I'm a bad habit, that's what they say,
But I look damn good getting lost this way!
BRIDGE – SMOOTH TALKBOX AND FUNKY GUITAR
Maybe tomorrow I'll settle down,
Maybe I'll finally turn things around,
But tonight the moon is looking right,
And I've got no intention of going home tonight.
VERSE 3 – RAP FLOW, MORE ATTITUDE
Listen!
I got a little bit of old school in my DNA,
A little bit of trouble in the words I say,
No borrowed personality, no rented fame,
I built this character, remember the name.
From the streets where the dreams don't sleep,
To the nights when the promises get too deep,
I'm still that kid with a head full of schemes,
Living outside the lines, chasing bigger dreams.
FINAL HOOK – BIGGER, PARTY ENERGY
BAD HABIT! (HEY!)
Can't get enough!
BAD HABIT! (HEY!)
Too damn tough!
I'm a bad habit, baby, can't deny,
A little bit of trouble with a look in my eye,
No apologies, no alibis,
Just another wild night under city lights!
OUTRO – TALKBOX
They said I'd grow up...
Well...
I'm working on it.
MARAKANSKY!
Keep that bass alive!
