[Verse] Into the van, another van First it's on the way to school You say there's rules to this Get on the ground Hands behind your back it'll be fun I've got no idea what kind of parent does that [Pause] [Sharp breath] So I get to my knees after a morning of his military routine on them I get to my knees and he invite us in Get in the van He says [Second verse] Now he's driving mad I roll into metal, clash into tools and knives in baggage I've no idea what's there for I can't see anything but sunlight flashing above Just then, the door slides open And he says GO GO SOLDIER NOW [Pause, sharp inhale sound] What kind of parent does that? But I'm not on a field like he was I'm in a church They say get on your knees again But this time its to repent for your sin I'm too little but I know what sin is You get to know this as satanic ritual, but this is where they like to hide what we know Punish us for evidence That sounds pretty weak to me [Chorus] Do I embrace the evil they say is in me? Take power against this enemy Or turn to the angelic side of those innocent lives he took If that's what it's like to be good I'll be bad Yea I'll be bad I'm a teen, that's what you say I'm good at So I'll be bad [Third verse] There's a ritual dinner I'm dressed to impress My body is all shadows and shapes I've never met I watch circles of everyone fucking eachother Liquids of all kinds They say this is hell if I make it hard on myself Don't hard time it, he says He's dressed too [Chorus] Do I embrace the evil they say is in me? Take power against this enemy Or turn to the angelic side of those innocent lives he took If that's what it's like to be good I'll be bad Yea I'll be bad I'm a teen, that's what you say I'm good at So I'll be bad [Pre-chorus] The candles that flicker they trickle down my skin He has me doing things i never should've been There's faces here I've seen in the church they tell me Hard time it and it's worse So I'll be bad That's what you said Or I'm dead Become undead [Chorus] Do I embrace the evil they say is in me? Take power against this enemy Or turn to the angelic side of those innocent lives he took If that's what it's like to be good I'll be bad Yea I'll be bad I'm a teen, that's what you say I'm good at So I'll be bad [Ending Verse] I'm supposed to be ashamed that I survived But you've never been face to face with dying this way So curb your opinions Motherfucker I lived To tell you all of this And I was a kid A bad bad kid
