Always gettin' in trouble And leaving little girls who hate to see me go 'Cuz I'm bad news, everywhere I go Ha ha ha come on bad news ha ha Well bad news travels like wildfire, good news travels slow They call me Ol' Wildfire, 'cuz everybody knows That

Don't want us to lose what we are Don't question it You ain't gotta question it You already know the answer The truth don't make us relevant Hurts but it's necessary Lose what we are So they can't help but to come and hate on it They see what we got and

I'm scared to death when I see them arrive Infected eyes red, staring at me The time has come for retribution Now they're counting my actions The cries and shouts are confusing me Falling in disgrace, I don't want to go now And I am facing them, it seems

Ooo ooo ooo Hi there, how are 'ya? It's been a long time Seems like we've come a long way My, but we learn so slow And heroes, they come and they go And leave us behind as if We're supposed to know why Why do we give up our hearts to the past?

I got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door I got this feeling they they're gonna come back for more See I was thinking that I lost my mind But it's been getting to me all this time And it don't stop dragging me down Silently reflection

Natural as the way we came to be Good times they come and they go Never going to know Never as good as the first time (never as good as the first time) Second time is not quite what it seemed Second time won't live up to the dream What fate is going to

Seems like a dream They got me hypnotized Got me hypnotized It's the same kind of story That seems to come down from long ago Two friends having coffee together When something flies by their window It might be out on that lawn Which is wide, at least

Niggas keep sayin they gon' heat me up Talkin that shit like they gon' lay me down But when I come through strapped to see what's up Niggas really don't want no parts of me pal Yeah, Fort Knocks, Aftermath, Compton to Jersey What y'all fools know about

Come a little closer, then you'll see Come on, come on, come on Time flies by, they all sang along Things aren't always what they seem to be Do you understand the things you been seein' Do you understand the things that you've been dreaming Time shakes,

You got that right Sure got that right I like to drink and to dance all night Comes to a fix not afraid to fight Said, you got that right Well I've heard lots of people say They're gonna settle down You don't see their faces And they don't come around
