Story Behind The Song

I wanted to do a western sounding song and Jason (the song's producer) started with this really distorted bassline and heavy drums. From there he added some electric guitars and added tension going into the hook with tremolo guitars as well as a large brass section. While he was doing this, I was writing the lyrics and they just seemed to come to me as he was producing. I decided to get Drazah (the rapper) on the song to give it a slightly urban feel and contribute to the ebb and flow of the song.

Song Description

Being a bad man in the wild west. Out there taking other guys women and shooting down anyone that challenges you. Musically the song is based on spaghetti westerns. Featuring heavy tremolo guitars, big brass sections and even a coyote howling.

Lyrics

"Bad Bad Man" with Drazah Backwards

Verse 1
Drazah
A beast from the east, but a legend in the west,
Ten paces turn and fire, then I pay my respects,
This man is bad bad, notice the double header,
Can't stand green dudes, I'm your big homie shredder,
Going against me is like beating on yourself,
You need to take it easy on yourself,
Look got a problem then I'm all in, six-shooter solving,
The world is on an axis and it's read dead revolving,

Illdot
I'm problematic, but mmm, it hardly matters,
Cause I never met a woman that I couldn't take home,
I'm full of malice, liquor and sarcasm,
So don't you fall in love or I'm gone,

Hook
See I was born to this earth as a man, I was never an infant,
And then the second that my feet touch the ground, I became 'bout my business,
Ain't no woman that could hold me down, no man dare try to shoot me up,
A lucky fool tried me once now they say that he's bent out of luck
Cause I'm a bad bad bad bad man, and I'll take your misses,

They say I got the coldest heart, darker than the night above,
If I could I would kill the sun, so you can't see me and my evil,
Live in a broken world, I do dirt running in the mud,
Guess I had a hopeless start, a gambler with a real big ego,
Six-shooter, stone cold as medusa,
I'mma make these statues fall with the look on my brow,
A problem drinker, go and call the minister,
The Good Lord's the only man I wouldn't shoot down,

Hook
See I was born to this earth as a man, I was never an infant,
And then the second that my feet touch the ground, I became 'bout my business,
Ain't no woman that could hold me down, no man dare try to shoot me up,
A lucky fool tried me once now they say that he's bent out of luck
Cause I'm a bad bad bad bad man, and I'll take your misses,

Verse 3
Sipping on Bombay early afternoon,
I chill in Bombay like every Friday morning,
Handsome, fly fresh and I'm bad to boot,
If your girl see me, that's your final warning,
She looking at me cause she want it,
Try to tempt me, watch your woman,
I'm John Henry, I'm Paul Bunyan,
Steel driving in your girl, onion!


Hook
See I was born to this earth as a man, I was never an infant,
And then the second that my feet touch the ground, I became 'bout my business,
Ain't no woman that could hold me down, no man dare try to shoot me up,
A lucky fool tried me once now they say that he's bent out of luck
Cause I'm a bad bad bad bad man, and I'll take your misses,
