[Verse 1]
Something bad coming this way, darling
Don’t look back with every fucker
Keep your eye on the path or it’ll drive you mad
The world goes ’round
Makes me dizzy, but I hold my ground
When I get nauseous, I just gag it down, pound for pound
I gag it down, I gag it down

[Chorus]
Oh, hit me, hit me with that super pain
‘Cause a hit feels like I’m dancin’ in the rain
Gimme that beat
There’s no need to cry, it’s just a black eye, yeah

‘Cause I want tonight to slap me in the face
Gimme that beat
There’s no need to cry, it’s just a black eye, yeah

Somеthing bad already happened
Doеs that make you sad?
I’m gonna burn it ’cause I don’t get mad

Year on a leash, it makes a nasty mind
I’m sorry Mr. Fister, if I bite, it’s just spite
I will bite, I will bite
