Born Bad

I wish I could say I was tempted
I wish I could say I was fair
I wish I could say the serpent
Led me down steps dank with despair.
 
I wish I could say that innocence
Glowed over every inch of skin
I wish I could tell you
Of the time that it all began.
 
But I always knew
When you take your first breath.
If you knew what I know
You would eagerly await your own death.
 
Don't you just wish
To speak your piece
 
But the truth is...
I was born mad
I was born bad
From the womb of hatred,
I WAS BORN BAD
 
In the face of
Stupidity and scorn.
The laws of society
Govern the man below
To abide in fashion
A making of words.
I am not held
Back under false idols
I will live on
A whim to lash
Out against the
World and any rules
Set in my way
By man or god
Cat or dog,
In the face  
Of righteousness
I speak these words,
FUCK YOU!
 
'Cause the truth is...
I was born mad
I was born bad
From the womb of hatred,
I WAS BORN BAD
