Fingernails

(ZIIIRO!)



[Chorus]

Bad habits

Got me a couple bad habits

Bad habits

God protect me from these bad habits

Bad habits

Don't stop me then I'ma have at it

Bad habits

Fears I may never escape these bad habits





[Verse 1]

I try my best not to stress so much

Bite my fingernails until I've lost my touch (Ha)

Cannibalistic tendencies

No clear signs of when I've had enough

Pushin' beyond limits

That cause my body to question if this mind was meant to steer it

Shit, occasionally I fear it

‘Cause some of these thoughts that I have aren't backed by holy spirits (Wanna play a game?)

That's probably why I pray so often

Coffin handmade by these peers that grand larcen’

My time without offerin' any means of compensation

So destination-focused that I lose all of my relations

All these co-op games but nobody to PlayStation

All these co-op games but nobody to play-station-

Eerie, how I've heard it all and yet how deaf I can be

And what's scary is the root to all my evils is, me



[Chorus]

Bad habits

Got me a couple bad habits

Bad habits

God protect me from these bad habits

Bad habits

Don't stop me then I'ma have at it

Bad habits

Fears I may never escape these bad habits



[Verse 2]

I don't answer my phone but

I don't want you to leave me alone

House hoppin' just to be around you motherfuckers

Yet not certain that I really have a place to call home

I curse so much without any remorse

If you're offended, you're probably still thinking in morse code

Code world it's the future of course

Where it's no longer okay to see a man about a horse

Terrified of being shot in self-defense

Knowing if I defend myself it's the death sentence (It's comin' right for us)

But my white friends need not fear my presence, ‘cause I've

Lightened-up a bit, if that makes any sense

(Up with the clan! Uh) Wu-Tang that is

Protect my neck, see? I ain't nothin' to fuck with

But I wonder since I'm always lookin' over my shoulder now

That I'm so focused on my past that my presence is-is missed



[Chorus]

Bad habits

Got me a couple bad habits

Bad habits

God protect me from these bad habits

Bad habits

Don't stop me then I'ma have at it

Bad habits

Fears I may never escape these bad habits



[Verse 3]

I tend to let my mind wander places it shouldn't

And somehow I keep finding reasons to couldn't

Distracted by my alternative endeavors

And driven by the fears of “I told you that n***a wouldn't make it”

So hard for me to believe in myself

Santa's little helpers and I am the tallest elf

It gets deeper than that but let's get past the fantasy

My significant other worn by the visions that I foresee

Visions blurry due to the significance to be

Cursing myself out 'cause that article's not of me

Marketing tactics used by Beyonce and Jay-Z

But I didn't have the Samsung or the galaxy backing me

Temptation-induced pleasure, cheap until pressured

Supportive when it's clever and distant when you've been measured

Yeah this tower of terror

Is in fact, a compilation of my sin-taxed errors
